build form in 2010 versus 2007

[byTimber]

Hi All,
Wrong header description sorry!

In my old Access a new blank form creation allowed me, in design view, to size the actual form the user sees. Not apparently not so in 2007 to 2010. Am I missing something? Grateful for any ideas....

Roger,

I am not totally sure that I understand your situation but I think you may be referring to the new, default "Tab" view of all objects.

If this is the case and you want to see your objects as you have always worked with them, in 2007 click on the large round button at the upper left of the Access window to go to the "Options" window (in 2010 click on the File menu option and then click on "Options"). In the Access Options window, click on the "Current Database" option at the left side. Locate the "Document Window Options" option. Click on the "Overlapping Windows" option. Save your changes and restart your database.
