Aligning Columns
Now, you align the fields, field labels, and static text in columns to help give the form a consistent appearance.
Use this procedure to align the fields, field labels, and static text in columns.
- Select the Line No. column heading, its separating line, the Line No. field, and the Description field. Then select Display > Align Controls > Left.
- Select the Prod ID column heading, its separating line, and the Prod ID field. Then select Display > Align Controls > Left.
- For ANSI X12 and EDIFACT: Select the Code Type column heading, its separating line, and the Code Type field. Then select Display > Align Controls > Left.
- Select the Qty Ord column heading, its separating line, and the Qty Ord field. Then select Display > Align Controls > Left.
- Select the Unit column heading, its separating line, and the Unit field. Then select Display > Align Controls > Left.
- TRADACOMS only: Select the Cons. Units column heading, its separating line, and the Cons. Units field. Then select Display > Align Controls > Left.
- Select the Price Each column heading, its separating line, and the Price Each field. Then select Display > Align Controls > Left.
