    Spell check only a single field in a specific record

    I replaced the 'ControlToBeChecked' text with the field name: [Type of business?]. I put the code in the after update event for the [Type of business?] field.

    The combo box is a subform- with limited space- and the scroll bars were making the data hard to read. I also tried this on a single field and it had no effect. Dave

    Control Scroll Bars in Access 2007?

    I finally gave up last night and went to a work station that is still 2003. The change took under a minute and it works correctly on both versions of Access [2003, 2007]. So I think what you are saying is that there is no longer a property of setting the scroll bars, that they are just there...

    Control Scroll Bars in Access 2007?

    My workstation was upgraded a few days ago to Acess 2007. A customer asked me to add a drop-down record selector to one of their forms. When I added the combo box and sized it to fit the correct area it had both scroll bars. I cannot find the scroll bar horz/vert/both/neither property. I...
