"moving" folder on BP forms

Question

Hello,
I have added a user folder to the BP form behind all system forms. I want it to keep to the same position whatever the form mode.
You can notice that according to the form mode, the number of system folders changes:
In Find mode for instance, there are no "Contact Persons" or "Addresses" or "Properties" folders.
If you have one record or more in the OCRD table, the form will open in Find Mode, so with the 5 standard folders and the user folder appearing in 6th position
If you click on the "Add record" menu, you now have 8 standard folders, but the user folder is no longer in last position.
I tried to call the GroupWith() method after action, but without success.
Any idea?
Cheers.
Cyril

I think you are trying to do something like this -
Dim MyButton As SAPbouiCOM.Button
If pVal.FormType = 134 And pVal.EventType <> SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_FORM_UNLOAD Then
'// get the event sending form
oForm = SBO_Application.Forms.GetFormByTypeAndCount(pVal.FormType, pVal.FormTypeCount)
''''' CREATE THE BUTTON ON BP MASTER DATA/ADDRESS TAB
If pVal.EventType = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_FORM_LOAD Then oNewItem = oForm.Items.Add("AddButton", SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_BUTTON)
oItem = oForm.Items.Item("70")
oNewItem.Height = oItem.Height
oNewItem.Width = oItem.Width - 7
oNewItem.FromPane = oItem.FromPane
oNewItem.ToPane = oItem.ToPane
oNewItem.Top = oItem.Top
oNewItem.Left = oItem.Left + oItem.Width + 5
MyButton = oNewItem.Specific
MyButton.Caption = "Why Hello!"
See how this code uses an existing button on the form to set it's properties including the FromPane / ToPane properties?
I hope this snippet helps.
