It is a little long. AutoLabel could be shortened to simply Label. I don't
think that would be confusing. And AutoLabelRelativePosition could simply be
LabelRelPos or LabelRelativePos, Or LabelPosition. I like descriptive names,
but sometimes they just get in the way. But I could live with it the way it
is.

I have not had time to try the new enhancement yet, but I will be very
shortly. What about the label font? Are there properties for that?

There should be THREE choices for the label caption.

1. Default to the field name, which would be all CAP's.
2. If defined, use the DisplayLabel property of the underlying column.
3. A user defined label. If this is blank, then either 1 or 2 would be used.


FWIW,
Paul Gallagher
