how to wysiwyg the form

[jmlight]

In design view, my form looks perfect. But when it displays in Form view - the spacing is way off...

Is there a way to have the design view in WYSIWYG?

Hmmm... interesting .... I have not seen that before except maybe with datasheet mode.

What version of Access are you using?

Just to be sure, are you using datasheet mode?

Can you post some screen shots?

When you return to the Form View, try the "Size to Fit Form" which is under the Window Menu ... this usually sorts the issue.

Or put this on the on open property of the form :

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
DoCmd.Maximize
End Sub
