Moving Form Labels Above the Field Instead of on Side of Field in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011

I know that I have had trouble in the past when I make a new four column section, getting everything to fit on the form, and by default you need to re-size the form on open to even get everything to fit unless you can find a way to shrink your fields down. I know there are settings to change the amount of space given to the label, but I have found another way to tackle this.
Here is how it works:
  1. The setting is at the section level. So, double-click on a section to bring up the section properties


  2. Now, click on the formatting tab and scroll to the bottom to find the "Field Label Position" setting:


  3. Now you just have to change the setting to "Top" and save and publish the form. You can repeat this for all sections on the form if you want to

It's as easy as that. Here's what it looks like when you are done and have published the form.



Hope it will help you out :).
