Centre vertically

[Baz]

Is it possible to vertically centre the text in a label si
that it doesn't always get placed at the top of the label
boundary?

I have asked this question before but got no answer. If
it isn't possible, please tell me.

Thanks,

B

Baz,

There is no icon that you can click to do that, but you can simulate
centering somewhat by using Ctrl+Enter to place a blank line at the top of
your label, followed by the caption.

hth,

Thanks for the suggestion...

The caption is forced into the label (using VBA) from a
variable source however, so I will not always know the
number of ctrl+ENTERs to do. It sounds like I'll have to
settle for top-aligned. Many thanks for the suggestion.

Don't know that there is a solution, but you might check out Stephen Lebans'
site. His site often has solutions for this type of thing.

Try the following URL (It is flagged Access 2000 only - but it might also work
with later versions)

Yup, the solution works with A2K or higher with both Forms and Reports.

I must be missing something, because I still don't see how
you got the text to be vertically centered.

Well look at the code behind the sample Forms and Reports.
