- With the form open
in the Sage 50 Forms Designer, click the Add A Data
Field button on the left side of the screen. The mouse cursor changes
to a cross.
- On the area of
the form where you want to place the data box, click and drag the pointer
across the screen to increase the size of the data box.
- From the list in
the Data Field, select a data type.
- In the Text section,
select the formatting, text colour, and background colour used in the
data box.
- In the Border section,
select where you want a line border to appear on the data box.
- If the form has
multiple pages, select whether you want the data box to appear on all
pages, on the final page, or on all pages but the final page.
- If the Stub
Field check box is available, then you are customizing a form which
contains more than one stub. If your form contains two stubs, and you
want the data box to appear on both stubs, then select this check box.
The same data box on the multiple stubs are linked on the
same form. If you move, resize, delete, or change the properties of this
data box, the same action is applied to all linked boxes.
- Click OK
to close the window and place the data box on the form.
- If necessary, you can move the data box or resize the data box on the form.
