Move Message Control

I am having difficulty moving the "Message Control" that displays <<< Record updated >>> after a record is added. It works better for me at the bottom rather than the top of the page.
I can copy or move it but it still displays on the top of the Add Page. When I delete it it deletes the whole table only leaving the header and footer control.

Hello,

is it really good to place this message at the end ??

PHPR shows the page again with this message and user will normaly first look at the top of the page.

If your page has many fields the user will be forced to scroll down to see whether the record is saved..

Otherwise .. if PHPR accepts the input fields.. why not directly go back to the table view...

The user knows what he put in the form and there is no need he sees it again if everything is okay...
Best regards

Doug,
to remove message just remove yellow 'Message' box on the add/edit pages.
