### Slider Object

The Slider object inserts a slider into your template. With a slider in your report you can allow users to set a value from a range of continuous possible values.

Along with the ability to resize the object, and change other attributes, you can further customize this object by using these properties:

Property | Description
Accelerator | This allows you to define the letter to use in conjunction with the ALT key to create an accelerator for the control. The letter or symbol defined should be unique from those used for other accelerators (including the accelerators on the menu bar).
Orientation | This sets the orientation of the slider. Selecting Horizontal sets the slider to move horizontally, side to side. Selecting Vertical sets the slider to move vertically, up and down.
TickStyle | This allows you to set how ticks are displayed on a slider. 0 – Both: sets the ticks to above and below the slider (if a horizontal slider) or to the right and left sides (if a vertical slider). 1 - Top/Left: sets the ticks above the slider (if a horizontal slider) or to the left (if a vertical slider).

2 - Bottom/Right: sets the ticks below the slider (if a horizontal slider) or to the right (if a vertical slider).

AutoTicks | Setting this to YES displays ticks on the slider. A tick is a short vertical/horizontal line that is placed at intervals (set by the TickFrequency property) along the range of the slider.
TickFrequency | This value determines the frequency that ticks are displayed. You can set a value between 2 and 200 ticks equally spaced along the range of the slider.
HelpHotButton | Selecting YES, shows a question mark help button next to the slider. Clicking this help button in Run mode launches the PC-DMIS Online Help.
ValueID | This is the ID of the value. You can set or get this by using the control.
MinimumEq | Minimum equation (This value can be a set constant number, a value evaluated from a simple equation, or a returned value from a VBScript). -$, $, CONST
MaximumEq | Maximum equation (This value can be a set constant number, a value evaluated from a simple equation, or a returned value from a VBScript). -$, $, CONST
DisplayID | This determines whether or not the DisplayID gets updated when the slider gets adjusted.
