Seperate check box from label

[Sanjo]

I am trying to set up a report and I need to separate the check box from the label. For example, the label reads CASH and has a check box. I want the label CASH to be the header and the check box to be underneath, but I can't seem to separate the two. How do I slide the check box down to the Detail row and leave the Header in the Page Header row?

Add the checkbox to the detail section, then delete the label and add an unassociated label to the header section.

thanks, but that causes a window to appear wanting me to enter a parameter value.

Shouldn't. What is the prompt asking for? The name will tell you what it's looking for.

It is looking for the previous name of that field. I changed the name in the Table from 'space A' to 'front space'. It is a 'yes/no' field. I then tried to change a column title on a list from 'space A' to 'front space'. I want the list to layout as follows:
front Space back space
joe x
mary x x
dick x

in other words, I need the 'front space_label to be the header on the Page Header and the front space (Yes/No) field to be in the detail area, but the Property Sheet does not have listed the 'front space_label'.

this explanation has got to be confusing.

I guess a question is when I changed the field on the Table from 'space A' to 'front space' then why does not the Property Sheet have listed the 'space front_label'?

thanks

If you're getting the parameter prompt, it's likely the field name that's wrong. Double check the control source of the checkbox. In any case, when you add the checkbox to the detail section, it will add the associated label. Delete just the label, then create a label in the header.
