Scrollbar Problem

[AussiePom]

Hi, Im new here, this is my first time to any Access Forum.

I have a really stupid problem, In my Main Form I have a Subform which displays everything as it should, but, for some reason the Subform Vertical Scrollbar slider (only the Vertical is displayed) does not default to the top of the Subform scrollbar when the main form is opened, the slider sits about halfway down the scrollbar, this means i have to scroll up to see the top of the Subform, really annoying.
I have compared all the settings with another Subform which defaults the slider to the top of the Scrollbar ok and can see no difference.
I have never come accross this before, the slider always defaults to the top of the scroolbar in a Subform.

Has anyone any ideas why this is happening, cheers in advance.

Found the problem, its me, perhaps i should take up gardening

Hi all, Sorry for the inconvenience but i sorted the problem, it was so simple its embarrasing.
My subform displays all the data as "Enabled" False "Locked" True, i went through all the fields and set them to these values, even the "Option Group" individual Radio Buttons were set to Enabled False, Locked True.

What i didnt realise is that not only the individual Radio buttons in an Option Group have these settings, which i changed, but the Option Group itself also has Enabled and Locked settings, I left these to True and False respectively, so when the Subform opened it scrolled down automatically to the first field it could find where the Enabled Option was still TRUE. I changed them all and the slider now defaults to the top of the scrollbar, Phew.

i had a similar problem when my subfrm was on another *page* on the main form and i went back to the first page, i.e. it set the focus on the first textbox and not the top of the page. i used:

DoCmd.GoToPage 1, 0, 0

perhaps check the tab order?? it's a fix, i know. hth.

p.s. nice quotation in ur sig.
