access 2003 table desgin description column

[bz]

Hi,

Whenever I type something in the description column in the table design
page, a tiny tool bar (with a power/electricity icon) will always pop out in
the next line blocking me to type another description for the other field.

The tool bar is showed as a "property update options" and has only 2
options:

update status bar text everywhere...
help on propagating field properties


Would you show me how to disable this pop up tool bar please?

Thanks!!!

hey.. are you using a find and replace tool like Speed Ferrett or one
of the other ones?

I had a similair problem until I installed 'Find and Replace 2.0' or
whatever that crap was called


Don't you just wish that MS would give us a real find and replace
functionality???

While I agree that this popup can be a bit intrusive, it does not block you
from entering a description for a neighboring field. Just click into the
description for the next field and start typing. The popup will disappear.

However, if you want to get rid of it, go to Tools > Options. Select the
Tables/Queries tab. Clear the checkbox that reads "Show Property Update
Options buttons".
