About groups of controls

A group is two or more controls on a form that you can work with as a single unit. You can include any control on the form in a group. Once controls belong to a group, you can work with the entire group, or you can select a single control.

There are many ways to work with groups and the controls in groups. After you select a group, you can do any of the following.

• Size all controls in the group at the same time.
  
  
• Separate controls in the group so each is independent of the others.
  
  
• Show the group shortcut menu for quick access to commands that affect the group.
  
  
• Select a single control within the group without separating controls in the group. You can then change property settings of the selected control without affecting any other control in the group.
