user-movable fields

[SB]

Hi Pat and Signe,

Hmmm, maybe I'm missing something, but the original code seems to work 
OK to move the fields either in the IDE or a standalone on OS X.

Is this not true in Windows?   I just had a big Windows problem in 
another area, so want to know these things early!

thanks,

Sandy
