Hi Fredrik,

I think you are just missing some 'of me' references in your code. The  
first line of code:

set the right of field "Rang" to item 3 of pControlRect -10

needs to be:

set the right of field "Rang" OF ME to item 3 of pControlRect -10

Without the 'of me' reference the engine moves the first field it  
finds named "Rang".

Regards,
