Properties Sheet Disappeared

M

Marzett

This is crazy...the properties dialog box is there in form view, but it's
invisible...everything else loses focus and the 'help' is listed at the
bottom that indicates I have an active cursor inside the properties sheet. I
just can't see the properties sheet. Yet for reports it shows up. I've worked
in Access a lot and never had this problem. Can anyone help?

Marzett,
This can happen occasionally with either the Properties, Sorting & Grouping and even
the Toolbox. Your dialog box is Off Screen.
Deselect Properties in the View menu option, then reselect it.
While selected, use Alt-Space
Type M for move
Use the up arrow to move the properies box up onto the screen, then hit enter to set
the new position.
