    Access 2010 views

    Hello All, Have a slight issue when I'm looking at forms (or other objects for that matter). They all appear as a 'tab' in a central pane, so that the navigation pane is on the left, the form/table/report etc in the middle, and the properties pane on the right. I'd like switch to a view where...
