[AccessD] Access 2007 Form Design Question

Having just read (and not absorbed) this, I ran into this exact thing in class today.  I was helping 
someone I am mentoring to quickly build an Access database, and so I went to do a report.  What a 
PITA.  COMPLETELY unable to just move things around as I want.
