Viewing fields on continuous forms

[Luther]

Hi,

I have created a continuous form based on a parameter
query. Is there a way for the users to see ALL of the
fields without having to scroll to the right. The form
property "Auto resize = yes" does not seem to help.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Place Controls on 2 or more "rows" in the Detail section of the Form so that
you can reduce the width of the Form to fit on the screen.

Can you walk me through that, please? What kinds of
controls would I put there? The Detail section only
contain the fields with the labels in the Header.

Thanks.

Are you using DatasheetView of the Form or the ContinuousFormView of the
Form?

Note that Form don't have Fields (which refer to data items stored in
Tables).

Forms only have Controls which are "visible" objects on the Form and are
used to display data / information.

*If you are using CtsFormView*, you can move the Label Controls in the
Header section so that they position like:

(Row 1) Label1 Label3 Label5 Label7
(Row 2) Label2 Label4 Label6 Label8

You can do the same for the (TextBox / etc...) Controls in the Detail
section similarly.

Most Access books cover Forms in details so it should be in any Access book
you have.
