Placing command buttons in footer on Access User Form

[maureen]

I have some quite a few command buttons on the footer of a user form. Unfortunately when I try to move a button it jumps up to the form section. I eventually manage to get them back on the form but it is not easy. Do I have to change any properties of the footer to enable command buttons to be moved.

Thank you

You can make minute moves using the arrow keys. Dragging w the mouse may be too large a move.

Unfortunately when I try to move a button it jumps up to the form section.

this is because you have moved the top of the control to above the top of the footer section. In addition to using the arrow keys, you can also modify the top/left/width/height properties. The top value is in relation to the top of the section.
