Assigning Titles and Summaries for Grids and Scroll Areas

Include titles and descriptive summaries for all grids and scroll areas. To do this:

1. Open the properties for the grid or scroll area in PeopleSoft Application Designer.

2. On the Label tab, select the Display Title check box.

3. Click the Properties button for the display title to open the Title Properties dialog box.

4. Enter the Label text that you want to appear in the title:

   Field or Control	Description
   Type	Select the type of label text to appear in the navigation bar. Message Catalog: Select this option to use a message in the Message Catalog as the title. Static: Select this option to manually enter text as the title.
   Text	Enter the text to appear as the title of the scroll area. This field is enabled when you select Static as the Label Text type.
   Message Set/Number	Enter the message set number and message number of the message in the Message Catalog to appear as the title of the scroll area. This field is enabled when you select Message Catalog as the Label Text type.

5. Click OK to return to the Label tab in the properties.

6. Click the Properties button in the Summary group box to open the Summary Properties dialog box.

   Note:

   The default value of the summary matches the title. However, you should add a more detailed description of the contents of the grid or scroll area to make the summary more useful in Screen Reader On mode.

7. Clear the Default to Title check box to activate the other Summary options.

8. Enter static text or enter a message set and number to use text from the Message Catalog.

9. Click OK twice.
