Ok... I made a report (invoice), and everything's okay/working nicely, except that among many other things,
I inserted a horizontal line and made the control too small to be selected.
The line itself is 0.200mm and I need to change it to 0.100mm but I can't select it.
I had to make the control really thin so that it would be as close as possible to the next block.
Besides trashing the report and starting from scratch, I am not too, too sure as to what to do to get out
of this situation. I guess I hung myself with my own rope...
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Christian

Hi,

Press F12 to open a window displaying a list of report controls. Select your
line control in the list box and click the "Description" button. You will
then be able to modify the height of your line control in the "Details" tab.

Regards

select it.

You can select controls by keeping the left mousebutton pressed,
move over the control and release the mousebutton.
(wd55, i'll guess it is the same in wd75)
This way you can save the rope for another time :-)

Christian,
In the Windev Pane (the panel which usually appears on the right of the screen) you can select
to view a list of windows or reports (among other things). At the bottom of the pane is another
panel which you can open up by dragging upwards on the bottom border.
This shows a list of controls for the window or report selected in the upper portion.
Select the report and open it up. Then select the control in the list and right click on the control.
You get a popup menu offering to be able to show the description or the code for the control.
If you select this it will automatically select the control on the layout.
hth,
Clive
