Split Form Attributes (1 Viewer)

[ddcessex]

The Split Form Wizard is great - produces a Gridsheetview in the Top Half and a Detail View in the Bottom Half - perfect for what I need.

But please tell me how I change the font size, the colours, the alternative row colour and other attributes of the Gridsheetview?

I'm a Newbie to Access programming so the solution may be obvious to some of you but it's puzzling me right now.

Thanks

First, you need to be in Design mode - RMB on your form in Navigation Panel on the left and choose Design View.
In Design View Alt+Enter (or click on "Property Sheet" button on Design tab of ribbon) opens property sheet and that's where you set up objects properties.

I am familiar with the Properties Dialogue of course.

Have you actually managed to change the attributes of the Gridsheet View (within a Split Form) yourself this way because I have difficulty with this and hence the post here at the Help Center. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Ok, I misread your post then, sorry.
I think you can change some properties of datasheet part in Form Load event only, like:

Me.DatasheetAlternateBackColor = RGB(0, 0, 0)

Thanks Cyanid

That's an approach I have yet to try
