how to get the listview control on my toolbar in access 2k3?

[Derek.Ciula]

Please help,

I'd like to use a listview -- but I can't for the life of me figure out
how to get the control to appear on my toolbar so I can simply add it
to my form. Sure I could do it all in VBA, but that doesn't seem
necessary.

Thanks for your help,
Derek

You need to click on the "More Tools" icon in the toolbox (it's the crossed
hammer and wrench with three dots below it). That'll bring up a list of all
of the controls that are on your machine. Scroll through the list until you
find the Microsoft Listview control and select it. Your cursor will turn
into a crosshairs that you can use to add the control to your form. You need
to do this each time you want to add a listview: unlike, say, Visual Basic,
selecting the control does not add it to the toolbox.

Thanks,

It turns out I had the toolbar docked to the bottom of Access. When I
clicked on more controls all I saw was a white line. I undocked the
tool bar and Wha-La up displays a whole list of controls that I have
been hunting for.

Thank you for your help Doug,
