No there isn't but what you can do is make the width of the text box the width
of the form and center the text in the textbox.

You could use another control, for example a button, as a measuring tool to make the space to the right and left of the text box the same.

Thank you for your quick response. That should be easy enough to do. It is strange that access does not have this functionality built-in.

I tend to work with the numbers. For example, if the form is 10 wide, i set the control width to (For example) 2 wide and then set the left to 4. It's not perfect but keeps your brain sharp using simple maths

Dan that's great for you blokes that use the metric system.
US measurement folks are not quite so lucky.

Oops XD
I supposed if you're working with inches, you can't be as intricate as with cm... didn't think about that

Twips! TWIPS!
