For example, a control or object can be placed on a page in a page frame, and the page frame is placed on a form. The Top, Left, Width, and Height properties return the position or dimension of a control or object relative to the page on which it is placed. However, you can use OBJTOCLIENT( ) to determine the position or dimension of a control or object relative to the form on which the page is placed.
The value returned by OBJTOCLIENT( ) is in pixels.
