    Can't resize/reposition fields independently

    I highlight a table and click Create -> Form. Access creates the form with all fields as desired. When I select Design View and try to resize a field or move a field all the fields are affected. Access won't let me change the field sizes independently.

    I'm using Access 2007 on Vista.



    Thanks.

    In design view, highlight the textbox(es), right-click and select Layout/Remove.

    Paul,

    That fixed it. Thanks.

    BTW, almost finished reading Atlas Shrugged.

    Happy to help, and welcome to the site by the way.

    I'm about due for a re-read myself. It seems hauntingly prophetic right now.
