HI,

1) how to specify the tabs for these items

In the Paragraph format....

select the TABS button and give the tabpositions..

in text element..

specify the paragraph format for which tabs are defined and give comma's for tab space..

ex:

p1 &f1&,,&f2&

2) Box Command

/: BOX FRAME 10 TW

Draws a frame around the current window with a frame thickness of 10 TW (= 0.5 PT).

/: BOX INTENSITY 10

Fills the window background with shadowing having a gray scale of 10 %.

/: BOX HEIGHT 0 TW FRAME 10 TW

Draws a horizontal line across the complete top edge of the window.

/: BOX WIDTH 0 TW FRAME 10 TW

Draws a vertical line along the complete height of the left hand edge of the window.

/: BOX WIDTH '17.5' CM HEIGHT 1 CM FRAME 10 TW INTENSITY 15

/: BOX WIDTH '17.5' CM HEIGHT '13.5' CM FRAME 10 TW

/: BOX XPOS '10.0' CM WIDTH 0 TW HEIGHT '13.5' CM FRAME 10 TW

/: BOX XPOS '13.5' CM WIDTH 0 TW HEIGHT '13.5' CM FRAME 10 TW

Draws two rectangles and two lines to construct a table of three columns with a highlighted heading section.

Hi,

1. Tab spaces can be set in when u are creating the paragraph format for that particular items.

2.Coming to the box this is little complex.

The first thing u have to do is calcualte dynmically the no of item records.

For example in ur loop u are getting 5 items,so u have to calculate the hegight of box based on no of records.

In this case 5 records, multiply this no of records with some constant and pass them into varible.And now u can use this varible in the box statment in ur form.

Example:

BOX XPOS '0' CM WIDTH '18.5' CM HEIGHT &G_F_COUNT20& CM FRAME 2 TW

In the above example G_F_COUNT20 height calculated in the program.

One thing should be rembered the G_F_COUNT20 varible should be declared in chracter format.

Let me know if I am not clear.
