No. But you can have a pool of unused items of the different types (character, number, date) and although you can't move them from canvas to canvas, you can display and hide them, move them around the canvas, and change their displayed length.

Correct, you can not create items dynamically. But as I said, you can have 'hidden' items that you 'turn on' and use.

Thanks david but it is useful only if we know the number of items but there may be hundreds of items that I may have to create dynamically.So this idea may not work in my case.

Anyhow thanks david..have a great day

Then I suggest you write it in Java.

Alternatively, you could explain what you are trying to do and we may be able to suggest how Forms can handle it because I can not see any application where you would need to create hundreds of items dynamically.
