Group area properties
Group areas are containers into which you can put other controls. A group area is similar to a group box, except that it doesn't have a button. You can use group areas to arrange controls that have similar functions or track similar information, such as all controls for valuations on an application or all controls that track contact information. You can also use group areas to divide a form into different panes. For example, you could use a group area on the left side of a page for a tree and another group area on the right to show information when you select a node in that tree.
