Adding a group box to a DataWindow object

To visually enhance the layout of a DataWindow object, you can add a group box. The group box is a static frame used to group and label a set of controls in a DataWindow object. The following example shows two group boxes in a report (a nonupdatable DataWindow object). The Address group box groups address information, and the Phone/Fax group box groups telephone numbers.
