Thank you Stefan! Just was out of the office for some days.

There ar 2 questions in addition:

1. Is there a possiblity to fix the position of the attribut fields if they are in
the same line? As. ex. if one attribute is empty or contain a very short value it may
be possible that the position of the following atrributes in the line are moving to
the left, if the value is very long, they move to the right side. This make it
sometime not easy to read the informations, specially if the user browses trough some
entries, the picture the eyes are scanning is changing.

2. Did I understand you right, that tis will not work while editing? I would like to
put this to the wish list for a uppcoming version (not very importand, but VERY nice
to have), that it may be possible to use Format in the new and edit mode too, because
it is somtimes more comfortable to have some attributes grouped locically in one line
or to have a overview over all attributes on one screen without scrolling while editing.

ELOG has e very big flexibility and I'm amazed how fast and stable it's running under
Linu xas well as under Windows! - I love it!  :-)
