    Position of Form Upon Opening


    I have a subform located about halfway down within a main form. The main form only contains labels and images. When I open the main form I would like the view to be at the top of the main form when in fact it opens and displays at the top of the subform (which again is half way down my screen). Is there a way to fix this?

    Drag your controls or form to where you want to be on the screen and eliminate any blank space. When you have them where you want them, save.

    Without help, Access wants to place the focus on the first control in the tab order. It does not look like you have any controls in the top of your form that can take the focus so you may need to create a 1x1 pixel textbox and put it in the top of your form somewhere and make it the first control in the tab order.

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