Hey guys,

I have a yellow label and a series of three or four text boxes. I want to give the appearance of the label highlighting the row where the text boxes exist. So I need to know how to make the text in the textboxes appear in front of the yellow label.

How can I do this?

Thanks,
Collen
 
Thanks for responding.

On the report it is a row of text boxes with space imbetween them. The user wants the entire row highlighted.
 
I don't think you can do that. But what you could do is to place the yellow label behind the text boxes and change the background color of the text boxes to yellow. It would then appear that the entire row is highlighted.
 
you might want to toggle the visibility option of the label as well, for the rows that's not selected...

You should be able to place a yellow rectangle behind the controls. Send the rectangle to the back and set the text boxes' background to transparent.
