If multiple questions are added on the form, you may perform drag/drop options on the list to change the default order of the list. To re-order the question list, left-mouse click and hold on the question you would like to move. Then move your cursor up/down the list:

An indicator will appear stating that you have successfully grabbed a question to re-order. Simply move your cursor to the new location in the grid and release.

Note: The re-order of questions will impact how the question information is eventually displayed in the Request Detail. It will also impact the default layout of a form prior to any edits to that layout. If you have made changes to the default layout of a form and then re-order your question list, it will not alter the form layout again. It will only be reflected in the Request Detail display of that form data.

At this point you may, you can select the row for a field and then be able to select Delete Question, Copy Question or Edit the question:

 

  Edit the details of a question such as the question label, help notes, maximum field size, database query & connections, etc.
  Copy Question: copy the question in its entirety and add it to the form.
