Well, I do control panels, GUI screens, etc. for lots of industrial applications and people seem to like my work. It's simply a change I would make if it was my t-h-a-n-g. You try it for a few days, and perhaps see how it fits from my perspective. Thanks for the 'date' relocation, anyway; ..that was a big improvement. John :-) .

Bob, re "I try to limit size changes as much as possible not only to save the necessary bytes, but because in my own case, the more sizes, the more confused my eyes get and the less able they are to quickly process the screen." The relative size of "moderated" and "date" isn't important to me, but your "save bytes" argument seems a little weak. If you want to save bytes, why spend some reducing the size of "moderated" in the first place? And if you are going to spend some bytes doing so, can't those same bytes alter two adjacent text fields? Ron
