Hi

In my Access database, the Database Window has the bottom half visible only.
How do I move the window down into view if I do not have access
to the top window frame (which can be clicked to move the entire window)

This is most frustrating as I cannot see some of the items under
Tables, Forms ... etc

Ideas welcome.
thanks
Peter

Do you have a way to click the Restore/Maximize button in the upper right
corner of your active window? I'm not sure I understand what's happening on
your PC -- what do you mean when you mention "the top window frame"?

Click to expand...

Any time an object is not completely within the main window there should be
scroll bars that would allow you to bring the object into view.

The Restore/Maximize button is not in view. Hence my dilemma in
trying to get access to the top half of the window.

Hi Rick

The database window does not contain a scroll bar. I can only see the left,
right and bottom window from.
If I select these, I cannot move the window down to make the window
title/max/min bar visible.

thanks

Not sure I believe that, but you can do the following to move the window
with your keyboard.

Click on the "File" menu then press...

<Left Arrow>
<Down Arrow>
<Enter>

You will now be able to move the object window by using the arrow keys.
When it is low enough to see the TitleBar press <Enter> again.
