Subform

Dan Dewey

5 years ago

I successfully inserted a sub-form into my main form, but I want to make the size of the sub-form bigger, show more records. It appears that once the sub-form is inserted you can only more that object around in the main form, but you can not adjust it's size. I tried adjusting the size in the form I used as the sub-form itself and then insert, but it made no difference. Any suggestions?

You should be able to resize the subform. Just make sure to click the very edge of the subform itself. Don't click "in the form". Sometimes it is difficult to grab. I wish that the border handle was larger myself

Thank you! I'm color blind and I could not see the boarder around the sub-form. I had my wife point it out to me. When you did it in the video you made it look easy. I thought because I have a newer version than when you recorded your video something might have changed. Thanks again!

Grab the size handle making sure you have a two headed arrow cursor. The four headed arrow will move the subform. My screen cap doesn't capture cursor sorry.
