Hi Frank,

Okay, I'm making progress. I actually have something working now :-)

>   holding Ctrl-Shift

I can do all of these successfully. Thanks, that's more than what I had before.


> - switch off the design mode (in of the the two toolbars "Form Controls"
>   and "Form Design")

Okay, I managed to do this. I had a lot of trouble figuring out when design 
mode 
was "on" or "off".

The next thing I need to figure out his how to resize the 'entry box'. I don't 
know hat it's called. When you drag'n'drop the column header, you get a text 
box. 
(what's it called?).  I want to learn how to resize it. For example, suppose 
that 
the contents of that column are very big (e.g. an copy of an email). How can I 
turn it into a big square? (e.g. 72 characters wide, 60 lines long).

What's the 'property browser'?
How do I find the context menu that has the 'Control' entry?

Cheers,
