Form Footer appears before Form Detail

[Luchino]

Access never ceases to amaze me in the amount of things that can go wrong for no reason.

Today, it's a form footer.

Okay...

I've added a form footer in design view, and it's in the right place.. When I switch to layout view or form view, the form footer appears in between the form header and the form detail.

What's happening!?

Update: I'm using a split form - header and datasheet. It's only in split form view that the footer appears in the middle - I've just changed it to continuous form and the footer is at the bottom, where I want it.
How can I get the footer underneath the datasheet?

you can't. A split form is a different type of form - you can only specify the datasheet part to appear at the top, bottom, left or right. it is intended to be used to quickly navigate to a record in datasheet view and display in form view above when a record is selected.

use a continuous form and design the detail section to look like a datasheet.

If you want the datasheet look and also datasheet functionality to move columns around, hide and resize etc then you need a main form (for header and footer) and an unbound subform in datasheet view to go in the detail section. However you will have some coding to do to link since the main form is the parent of the subform, not the other way round (which is what a split form does).
