    Hide empty text boxes from a continuous form, but display those with data

    I have a continuous form in Microsoft Access that has text boxes (Parts) that are stacked one on top of the other in the form.


    I want blank text boxes to hide and move the next text box which has data to top leaving no empty rows inbetween

    I'm afraid this is only possible with reports, using the Can Shrink feature.

    Those records should be child records in a sub form, then you would only see them when they existed?

    True about the subform. I'd say that these are repeating type fields in the same table as the customer data, which would be wrong.
