    Form Properties Not Displaying -suddently stopped displaying

    I have never had this before and i have not changed anything in the set up
    But when in form design view, normally if I have right clicked in the Form Footer, the form properties are displayed
    This is no longer happening in any of the forms, even in an older version of the application, although the Properties icon on the Ribbon is highlighted



    I have brought in the form border to match the extreme right hand side field, saw this in a previous post

    This has just happened this morning, any ideas

    Right click shows shortcut menu and Property Sheet shows Form Footer properties. What do you mean by "form properties are displayed"?

    Thanks June for your reply
    See the attached pdf, the properties icon is highlighted but the property dialoque box is not displaying. e.g I cannot see and open the query, the form is based on

    I have tried shutting down the lap top and restarting but just the same. as said has only occured this morning, never had this issue
    Many Thanks

    The property sheet can be strangely docked. If it's at the bottom drag it up.

    Windows 10 has it's own snipping tool?
    Please use # icon on toolbar when posting code snippets.

    Yes, it does. Click on Windows icon and start typing "Snip".

    Dave, don't suppose you have 2 active monitors?

    finally fixed it, by googling again using propert sheet
    and somehow the propoert sheet had gone to the extrem right hand side and reduced to a single line, so dragged it to the left and wallah

    thanks all for responding
