Add nore functionality to the tabluar arrangement in forms and reports.
In forms and reports, the tabular arrangement of controls and their labels is very limited. In reports, it is not possible to have the headers placed in group headers on the report. Cutting and pasting the labels into other than page headers removes the ability to coordinate the size of the label and the control.
Please add the ability to select the location of the labels and controls when creating a tabular arrangement

When I Create a Continuous Form or Report from scratch, I
• add the controls from Add Existing Fields.
• Then run some code to apply LNC prefixes to the boxes and labels.
• Then cut the labels and paste them into the header section.
at this point the labels are no longer associated and cannot be because they are in a different section.It would be great if
a) we could keep them associated even if they are not in the same section. ie allow them to be moved to another section without dragging the parent control along.
b) had an option to not automatically resize labels when we manually change their captions.
