Form Properties

[Jim]

I work with the Air Force. We recently upgraded to Office 2007. With the
previous version of Access, I could right click on the square in the top
left-side corner of the form to access the properties of the form. When I do
so ... nothing happens.

I checked the properties on the database to ensure I had "Full Control" in
modifying the database ... I do.

What is prohibiting me from opening the properties on the form?

It works for me. How about a right clock on that square? Does that let you
select the properties of the form? You are in design view right?

Any of these will work in AC2007 to see the properties in DESIGN form:
Double LEFT click.
Right click and then select properties on the bottom of the menu that opens.
Press F4.

RuralGuy,

I'm in the Design view. I right clicked the box. I can see the Properties
function in the pop up window, but when I click on it nothing happens.

Any ideas?

Jim

Jim,

Maybe we are dealing with some form of corruption here. Try creating a new
db and importing everything from the old db and then Compact and Repair. See
if you still have the same problem.
