Aligning the tick boxes in a report (1 Viewer)

Good Day All.

Ticked control boxes which has a data source of Yes/No type on a report canvas is always located to the left side of the rectangle box it is in. Can it be placed in the center?

No, but you can resize the rectangular box and move the control around the form

thanks CJ_London.
However my situation involves 3 adjacent controls in a necessary tabular layout which I can't really control too much; and additionally the width of the label section of the control is at their maximum Minimum.

as I said

move the control around the form

in design mode, select the control and drag to the right.

open your report in design view.
select all labels in page header and textbox/checkbox in the detail section.
on the ribbon: Arrange->Remove Layout
now, select the checkbox and make the width smaller.
move your checkbox to desired location.

Once you do that you will probably want to use align left or align top to get them aligned perfect.
