As fredg said, you can't. Scroolbars, command button, etc are determined by
the settings in Windows. The whole point is to let the individual user set
his/her own preferences.

Thanks,

you saved me quite some time. i find it hard to believe that you cant use VB
to change the colour properties in a custom access form.

i have found a work around that suites my needs and only displays the
scrollbar when a certain number of records are displayed.
