cadillac,

tell us a bit more. do you want to move it to a different pre-established location?
and what are the conditions under which you want to move it?

If you have a multi-user database, I think this might cause problems if it is even possible. To move a field, you need to open the form in design view, move the field, and save the form. Then open it in normal mode. This would impact any other users of the form since you have physically changed the form object and saved the change and will probably not be possible at all if the form is currently in use by another user. A2K is even more picky than previous versions about updating objects when the db is opened by multiple users simultaneously.
 
i was wanting to move one textbox out of the way and move in another under certain conditions. since then i have come up with another way to accomplish the desired results. thanks for the responses.
