Hi William,
I believe you just need to write a script that hides empty fields and
sets the top of filled out fields to the bottom of other filled out
fields (with a margin, probably). You probably want to group the whole
thing and give the group scrollbars.
Actually, I hate the addressbook, because I never know where I will
find the data I need and I have to activate the silly edit mode to be
able to change something. I have a few addresses in it, but for the
more serious stuff I'm still using my old perfectly working HyperCard
stack, which I will probably convert to Rev anytime soon.
Please, don't use the geometry manager. The day will come that you
regret using it.

Maybe it can be done with grouped fields and the geometry manager?
Making the edit section is not as difficult because everything is in
the
same place except those little plus buttons that add a new field as
needed.
The address book is such an elegant design I can't believe someone
with a
lot more knowledge than me hasn't copied it already and put it on the
RevOnline.
Anyone have anything similar that would be simple enough for me to
learn
from?
