    Modify Tab Name

    I modified the box on the Comments form that read "Comments" to say "Special Instructions for Production". (Type Name=Form; Family=Ticket; Name=Comments).

    After the mod is done, I am viewing a Ticket in SalesLogix and I have the "Comments" tab in the middle view.  The name of the tab appears as "Comments".  I  would like to change the name to say "Special Instructions for Production".  How do I do this?

    I am not sure how to attach a document to this email so that I can show you a screen shot.  If you need a screen shot, send me your email address and I will email it to you.

    Thanks,

    Nancy

    Sorry, forgot that info.  We are using the LAN version and it is version 7.0.1.

    Thanks

    Ok,

    That form is covered entirely by an object. So, grab the handles for the object and shrink it down, so you can access the form, in the background. once you have the form itself highlighted, open the properties and change the Caption property.

    I hope this helps.

     

    Thanks

    Hi Dale:

    I was able to access the form.  Currently the Caption reads "Comments", so I changed it to "Special Inst".  The name of the form in the properties window is called "frmcomments: TAXForm".  I then saved the form and when I go into SLX, the name on the tab does not change.  It still reads Comments. 

     I am pretty sure I am selected the 'form' and not one of the panels, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

    Any other suggestions?  Or do you have an email address so I can send you some screen shots.  It might make it easier to see what I am doing.

    Thanks
