    Stop textbox scrolling to top when clicked out

    Hi all
    when I have a lot of text in a text box and then click out of it it seems to automatically scroll to the top of the textbox, is there a way to stop this and keep it where it left off?

    Short answer - Not that I am aware of.
    Access doesn't have a bottom alignment option for text boxes.
