    Navigation Form Tabs

    I Created a Navigation Form with the Tabs on the top. After discussion with the user's They would like the tabs to be moved to the Right Side. Anybody know how I can re-anchor the tabs from the top to the right?

    Why can't people accept work that requires zero effort?
    they always want to change it ,and create MORE work.

    The biggest issue they have is that with the tabs on top the forms require scrolling and my boss okayed moving them. I just need to figure out how without having to scrap the existing forms and starting over.

    I don't use navigation forms for various reasons, but can you not just remove layout (under the arrange tab) then drag and resize the navigation control to the side? Or can it be dragged into the form header where it won't be affected by scrolling? since even on the side it will scroll.

    Another possible option (I presume possible with navigation forms) is to maximize the form and remove the scrollbars so it cannot be scrolled, then make all the forms used in the subform scrollable if they are not already, instead of the navigation form. You can resize the subform control using the anchors or some simple code in the navigation form resize event which means the form is sized for each users monitor.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
