INTRODUCTION

As mentioned, a form consists of elements called controls. Certain controls are labels, such as the labels for a field name ; these are, by default, bound to the text box control that displays data from that field (also called the data field ) . When you want to move, resize, or delete a control, whether it's a label control or a text box control, you start by selecting it.

TIP

Selecting Multiple Controls

To select more than one control, click the first control, and then press and hold down the Ctrl key as you click on each additional control you want to select.
