Form view: lower part of screen hidden; dragging form footer does not help

Hi All,

I have designed a form which requires the whole of the screen for showing. The screen is maximised.

One third at the bottom of the screen is a blank area marked by a thin horizontal line. The blank area covers part of my form.

When I use the scroller bar on the right of the screen, the hidden text comes into view, but this is not an acceptable solution because text on top scrolls out of view.

In design view I have dragged the form footer down to remove that 'blank area', but this has no effect in form view (user's view). I have also dragged the bottom edge of the page down (in design view) but to no avail.

What do I have to do to remove that blank area from the screen?

Thanks.

Adrian

Compress your form.

Rubbish.

That will make the form fit into a smaller area, it will NOT remove the blank area from the screen.

My question was: "What do I have to do to remove that blank area from the screen?"

Some serious reply please?

I have now found the cause and simple solution.

In Design View of the Form, I clicked View

and "view Header/Footer" was switched on.

The moment I switched it off, the blank footer which was covering the Form disappeared. Problem solved.
