    Question about Northwind Splitform Controls

    all,



    I am looking at the NW example, and all of the buttons on the split forms look like this:



    Can anyone tell what property is connecting the actual button to the detail section of the split form like that? That sort of thing happens automatically when you create a new columnar autoform in pre-07 versions, but I'm unsure of how to make one of those "connecting" type controls myself. each of them do have something in the TAG field, but it doesn't make much sense.

    does anyone know what prop causes that? or how to make one? thanks!

    put the form in design view, select the Arrange tab, highlight the control(s) - - and I think it is in the 'control layout' section of the ribbon...hover your cursor over them for an explanation...can't remember exactly...perhaps 'remove' ...but in any case you should find it there.

    hope this helps.
