Design View - Can you hide Field Properties/Default to Design View
In Design View, is there a way to 'hide' the field properties in order to
free up the bottom half of the screen so i can see more field names/entries? Also, is there a way to have a file you open default to opening in Design View?

No, but if you have more than 30 or so fields your table structure probably needs to be reconsidered; and you can of course scroll down and see all 255 fields if you're unwise enough to define them! Also, is there a way to have a file you open default to opening in Design View? You could have a Macro named Startup which opens one table in design view, but I can't imagine that being practical in the long run. What's wrong with right-mouse-click and object and select Design View? John W. Vinson[MVP]

Design View - Can you hide Field Properties/Default to Design
i only have 25 fields, i just would like to see them all - and that field
properties segment takes up half the screen. i had not yet learned about the right click option to open in design view, that helps! thanks!
