    Entire form not shown in form view

    Apologies if this has been answered in another thread, but a search did not find an answer. As simple as it may be, I cannot get it to work.



    When viewing a form in form view only 75% of the page is seen. The bottom portion is concealed. I have set the scroll bar option to vertical but the scroll bar does not appear.

    The entire page is viewable in design view, but not form view. Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated.

    Any chance you can post your db so we can look at it? If not, how about a picture of what you see?

    The original DB is too large to send. I have created a blank DB with the form in question.

    Thanks

    This form needs at least the HoleyMoley table/query in order to load in form view. When you Compact and Repair and then zip your db, how big is it?

    The form is too large for normal resolutions you need to embed this form as a subform in another form then you will have scrolling caperbilties.

    Try copying all the information into the Details section. It will not show in the form header.
