Defining Pop-up Pages

Before you define your pop-up pages, you should determine which data is appropriate for pop-up information. Typically, this is data that supplements and enhances the data on the primary page or information that you might access from more than one main page.

Note:

When designing pop-up pages, carefully consider how to make them more versatile and reusable.

To define pop-up pages:

1. Select File, and then New and select Page from the New Definition dialog box.

2. Insert the record fields on the pop-up page.

3. Right-click the page and select Page Properties to open the Page Properties dialog box.

4. Select the Use tab.

5. Select Popup Page from the drop-down list box in the Page Type group box.

6. Select the page size:

   Field or Control	Description
   Auto-Size	Select to size the page automatically to fit the fields that are defined on it.
   Custom Size	Select to size the pop-up page by dragging the edge or by entering the width and height in pixels.

7. (Optional) Select Adjust Layout for Hidden Fields.

8. Click OK and save your pop-up page.

   If you selected Auto-Size, the system sizes the page automatically to fit the fields that are defined on it when you save.
