Hi,
I sat my form properties to display both scroll bars, but it's only dispalying the horizontal one even though the form needs the vertical (a few text boxes are not displayed because they are at the bottom of the form).
I have tried to close the DB and reopen it again and played about with the properties, but it still does not show the vertical scroll bar.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Regards,

I'm trying to auto scroll the Detail Section where the user will able to see the last record on my continuous form.
Can anyone tell me how to do this?
My sincere thanks!
Basically what I want to do is create a form that combines 2 tables. For example, I want to be able to display a name, then display and be able to scroll through all information associated with that name. For instance, if the name had more than one address, how would I create that form with the right relationships and with the scroll bars? Thanx

View 1 Replies View Relatedhow can i make a text box (with multiple lines) display a permant scroll bar on the right hand side?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn the forms that I have made, none of the listboxes ever scroll with the mouse scroll wheel. I have tried to click into the listbox first to ascertain that the focus is in the listbox but nothing works. the only way to scroll is to manually drag the scroll bar tab.
I want to find out how i can make my scrolling work. I guess that there must be a global setting somewhere to switch it on or off... Any insight into this will be highly appreciated!
Hi Guys,
I have a text box containing a lot of explanitory text and I want vertical scroll bars.
I have set the 'scroll bars / vertical' in the properties of the text box and yet...no scroll bars. I feel that some other setting is preventing the scroll bars.
Anyone got any ideas?
My problem is that I have a couple of forms where scrollbars are not appearing on forms when they are too long to fit on-screen. Instead they're just going below the bottom of the screen and there's no way to access things at the bottom of the form. This is happening with a data input form as well as with a form I'm using to filter and display a report. I've tried selecting both "Vertical only" and "both" for the scrollbar property of the form, but it doesn't seem to make any difference.
The forms are being opened in "dialog" mode, the only option for opening a form in a web database when using a macro to open it, it seems. If I manually open the form in 'normal' mode, it has scrollbars. Also, if I open a report with a macro (on click), it has the option to open in 'normal' mode and has scrollbars and all is well. But if I want the user to be able to click a button to open the form, it seems I have to use dialog mode.
I am having a problem with displaying the scroll bars in Access. I have created a database which is viewed correctly in 1280x720 screen resolution, which is our standard setting. However, we have recently taken on some users with sight problems, and they are using a different screen resolution.
This means that the forms do not fully display on the page, and I would like to add scroll bars to the access window rather than the form so that the user can move up and down the displayed form. Is this possible?
Any help will be much appreciated!
Help! I'm not sure how I did this, but NO matter what database I go into i can see any toolbar or menu bar. Yes I tried the shift key. How do I turn it all back on?
When I right click I can get the database startup properties, everything has the check, yet I can't see any toolbars or menu bars. I've searched though the help, and I can't see to find out how to put it back.
Hi Can anyone advise me if there is a a way to remove or hide the "title Bar" at the top of the window on forms etc. The bar I mean is the one with the icon followed by e.g "Access - Forms [switchboard -Form]"
Any help would be appriciated.
Many thanks

I have a form and in the form is a subform. When I add a record with the following code, the subform detail scrolls in such a way that you can't see the record you just added...only a single blank new record. Can you set the scroll position so that I can see all the previous records including the one I just added?
Private Sub Add_PROJ_RECORD()
On Error GoTo Err_Add_Click
Me.PROJECT_DATA.Locked = False
Me!PROJECT_DATA.SetFocus
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
Me.PROJECT_DATA.Form.PROJ = PROJ_COMBO
Me.PROJECT_DATA.Form.SPEC = SPEC_COMBO
Exit Sub
I'm having a vertical scroll issue thats very strange. Most of the time I can scroll vertically fine, but every now and then it locks up and wont let me scroll down, especially with the mouse wheel. A couple of the engineers have had even weirder symptoms where they cant even scroll down using the arrow keys on the keyboard.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to make forms open scrolled to the top and have had very little success.
I found a function on the following site http://www.lebans.com/SelectRow.htm that works great as demonstrated and when I attach the following code to a text box the form scrolls to the top.
Private Sub Text98_Click()
Dim lngret As Long
lngret = fSetScrollBarPos(Me, 1)
DoEvents
End Sub
What I am trying to do is have the form scroll when it opens but by attaching the above code to the form's on_open event there is no effect.
What am I doing wrong.
Any ideas
I have a form in datasheet view, with the record ID column frozen and users typically scroll to the right to see certain columns. Different users scroll to a different position.
I dont have the option to reduce the number of columns or create separate forms for different users, - they all need to see all the columns but typically a user scrolls horizontally to see a certain set of columns most of the time. I want to save that position for the next time they open the form.
I have a form that opens to a NEW record, all fine and grand. there are a few drop down choices, and modern users are using the scroll button to try to move up and down the list in the drop down boxes, but this action actually tries to move to the next record, causing an error as fields are blank etc (which is fine) but its confusing everyone.
the nav buttons are not shown on the form, so what can we do to stop the form trying to goto another new record?
the form is opened using a macro, where the action is OpenForm (view=form, data mode=Add and window mode=Normal) GoToRecord (record=new).....
Is there a way to change the vertical scroll bar position to always be at the top when I move from form to form. Right now, it will start at the top, but when I move to a different form and back, the vertical scroll bar is positioned in the center. I turned off the autocenter property of the form and saved it in the desired position, but that doesn't work. My form is maximized when it opens. I would greatly appreciate some help. This has been an annoyance for quite some time now.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have added a scroll list to my access form and although I can see the item I need to pick in the drop down list when I manually start typing it, the scroll box doesn't bring the value up and states that the value I have selected is not in the list (when it clearly is !!)
View 10 Replies View RelatedI gather that there is no way to include a scroll bar on a memo field in a form. What is the best workaround? The source is a mysql odbc table. It is set as medium text and comes into Access 2010 as a memo field. For a user coming to this field to read the material entered there, unless they click somewhere within the field, there isn't a scroll bar. It isn't obvious that that is what they need to do to see all of it. Is there any way to work around this limitation?
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to prevent a user from switching records on a single page form when he rolls his/her mouse wheel. I have noticed that users accidentally scroll the wheel, and this switches them to the next record.
I need for them to remain at the current record they have chosen, or at the new record they are working on.
I'm trying to disable mouse scroll wheel on the form but no luck here,
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a continuous form that displays my massive 3,000+ inventory, with the option to filter down to specific categories. Some categories have 5 items, others have hundreds. The design I have used makes it look really tacky once I filter down to one of the categories that has 5 items, because there is no scroll bar.
What I've tried using is:
Code:
If Me.RecordsetClone.RecordCount < 10 Then
Me.Scrollbars = 2 'vertical only
Else
Me.Scrollbars = 2
End If
But it still doesn't display correctly (nobar.png). This is probably my biggest headache right now, and every "solution" I've found, doesn't work.
How can I remove all the bars specially the menu bar:
File, Edit, View, Insert,...
Hello,
I created a database, and was trying to get the welcome form, to load full screen. So I unchecked all Menu bar and Shortcut bar (allow)
So I now have locked my self out.
Any ideas, I once remember something like ctrl while opening the database, but that does not fix it.
Thanks,

What is the best way to turn all the menu bars and tools bars off and back on when a form opens and closes? Can you just loop through the numerated objects?
View 14 Replies View RelatedGreetings.
I am pulling my hair out trying to create a customized menu bar. Eventually, I want to have a customized menu bar and tool bar for report and different customized menu bar and tool bar for forms. I created the tool bar for the report window. Then when I tried to create a new menu bar I could not remove menu selections without removing the same menu selections from the default Menu Bar.
I selected View->Toolbars->Customize...
Then I clicked on New (command button)
Then I named it (RptMenuBar)
Then I selected 'Built-In Menus' from the Commands Tab
Then I dragged the 'File' from the Command list into the new Menu Bar
Then I went to the new menu bar and dropped down the selections under File and started to left click and drag what I didn't in the NEW MENU BAR. However, it turns out when I did that the same selections were removed from the default Menu Bar.
I was ablel to restore the default Menu Bar. But I want to have a customized Menu Bar and be able to select that new Menu Bar and associate it with every Report that is in my Database.
Any ideas? If you have some good instructional references, please point me in that direction. Thanks.
