To set up dynamic properties

To identify which form object properties are dynamic, first you must turn active labels on.

Active labels identify which properties can be dynamic. Active labels are identified by a green underline that you can click to dynamically bind the property to a data source. You can set the default color for active labels.

For example, here is the active label for the caption for a drop-down list.

By default, dynamic properties are turned off.

To turn active labels on and off

Do one of the following actions:

•	From the Object palette menu, select Show Dynamic Properties.

•	Select Tools > Options > and select Data Binding from the list on the left. Then select the Show Dynamic Properties option and click OK.

Note:

If you turn active labels off, any form object properties that are already dynamically bound to a data source will remain bound and active.

To set the default color for active labels

1.	Select Tools > Options and select Data Binding from the list on the left.

2.	Select the Use Custom Label Color option.

3.	Click the color picker and select a color.

4.

Click OK.
