Border for the Caption of a Text Field

Avatar

Level 4

Does anyone know of a way to get the border between the caption of a text field and the value section to be visible to a form user?  It's a bit confusing when someone enters a field and there's no line of demarcation between the caption, which they can't edit, and the value, which they need to edit.

Choosing different appearances for the field will make it very clear. If you choose to have no appearance then there is no deliniation between the two. You can set it up to change the back color of the field on enter and reset it back on exit. This technique will highlight the field that has focus and there is no doubt as to where the field stops and starts.

Thanks for your suggestion!  I just messed with the Appearance attribute and now it looks the way I want it!
