First and foremost, welcome to Access World Forums.

Second, I am going to move your question to the Forms category, as It appears that is the nature of the question.

Now, as to your question: A word was left out and thus it is not clear from the brief description you gave. Please take your time to explain what you did, what you saw, and what you expected but did NOT see. We will be happy to help but need a little bit more to diagnose the issue.

Some properties are only available if you explicitly create them. How are you trying to access/use the property. Just error trap it?
This sort of thing will report the problem, if the property does not exist.

on error goto fail
msgbox me.properties("somepropery")
...
exit sub

fail:
   msgbox "Error: " & err & "  Desc: " & err.description

just a guess but in form design view -perhaps you need to click the properties option on the ribbon to display the properties window?
