Hello,
I'm in the middle of creating an electroni questionnaire and the form won't let me expand it anymore.
The ruler says its at 55.
Can anyone tell me if there is a way around this as this has put a major dent in my project.
Thanks in advance
Ian
Break it up into tabbed forms?

When creating Access forms, you can create a Tab control as a way to organize controls. You can create the control the way you create any Access control, the tab control is available from the toolbox.
The tab control looks like a series of file folders, with tabs on each folder. Each file folder is considered to be a page. The tab control is displayed with 2 tab pages by default. You can click directly on a page to select that page, whether you are in form view or design view.
The tab control serves as a container for other controls. There are several ways to add controls to a tab control page:
*Drag fields from the field list to the tab page.
*Click a tool in the toolbox and create controls from scratch.
*Paste controls that have been cut/copied from another object, such as form or page.
You cannot drag and drop between pages of a tab control.
Like any control, the tab control has a variety of properties. The tab control has a set of properties for the tab control itself. In addition, there are seperate properties for each of the pages of the tab control.
