Wozi,
At least in Forms 5.0 there is a SET_CANVAS_PROPERTY built-in and
the HEIGHT property is one that can be changed with it, not sure about
earlier releases. I'm not sure if it will do what you are trying to
accomplish, but looks like it might be worth a try. My gut feeling is
that it will cause multiple 'item off canvas' errors unless you also
set the ENABLED and VISIBLE properties to FALSE for each of the buttons
(and any other items) on the portion of the canvas you are eliminating.
Hope this helps,
Paul
