Access 2007 to Access 2000 Problem

[JPW]

I have created a database in Access 2007 that now works well, and one that I'm quite proud off. However, I can easily convert it to an Access 2000 format as can anyone else here, but when I load it up there is a major problem.

I have used the tab control in my main form and that has three tabs on it. However, it's positioned correctly in Access 2007 it's not positioned correctly in Access 2000 as I have to move the tab control down a bit, but that would seem fine. So I lowered the tab control form and changed my form layout slightly, but even then the tab control over all over the Access 2000 form whenever I interact with the tabs - most bizzare.

Any help? Thanks.

Make sure that you have changed the Access 2007 way of using forms from tabbed to cascading, as Access 2000 doesn't support tabbed view (do not confuse this with a tabbed control, it is a special view in Access 2007).

To do so, see my Quick Tutorial on my website for that:

No that does not work. I think you think that I'm refering to the actual tabs on the window things.

In my Access 2007 form I have inserted a tab control (called 'TabCtl0') and in that I have fields. I have set it so it has three tabs. I then save it as a Access 2000 format and open it up in Access 2000. The form window opens fine, but the tab control inside it does not function properly. What happens is the tab control is out out of place within the form and even after I move it about a bit in design view I go back to normal view and interact with the tabcontrol the tab control jumps about within the actual form. Obviously it's behaviour that I don't expect.

Can you provide screenshots of what is happening?
