    Dead space on form & scroll bar


    I have enough room on my screen to have my whole form appear without having to scroll. However, there is a bunch of dead white space at the bottom of my form in form view and a scroll bar. How can I get it so my whole form appears and utilize this dead space?

    If you switch to design view, do you have any extra blank sections (i.e. Group, Page, Report Footers)?
    If so, resize them all down to zero.
    Also, if you have extra space at the bottom of any section, drag the bottom up so it is just under your last fields.

    Quickest solution ever!

    I just set the footer to 0 and it worked.

    Thanks
