    Multiple Items Form grouped items

    When I set up an Multiple Items form, the form auto populates with the information from what ever table I had selected.



    Fantastic!

    Except in the design view all of those fields appear to be part of some secret society within their own grouping mechanism, there is a faint dotted line around them.

    and they don't play well with other added Fields. how can I either add things to that group or get rid of that grouping mechanism.

    Thanks for the help

    Sounds like you let wizard build form. Wizard uses layout grouping. If you don't like it remove: select all controls then right click menu > Layout > Remove Layout.

    Looks like they are part of the same layout. On the Design ribbon look for Remove Layout (towards the left of the ribbon).
