I am designing along with you the database you are building.  I have noticed a problem that came up again in this course. In regard to the button design. My buttons are very hard to work with.  The size of the button seems to be only controlled by sizing the text box in the button.  I watch you and you seem to control the buttons size by sizing the actual button and the text box just floats in the center of that particular button.  I had to stop your lesson and work awkwardly hard to get the buttons to size up and arrange because of this problem.  Is there a control in the buttons properties that I need to change?  Any help with this would be appreciated...Aloha

Sounds like a possible bug in access.
Is this happening in all your db?
Can you try the usual, reboot, backup, compact repair, new db, import the form into that.
