Scroll bars in subform text boxes
I have used scroll bars in text boxes with no problems. However, that has
now changed. I have a bound text box, one line of text in height, in which the text usually fits on a single line, but every now and then it goes a bit longer. I thought a scroll bar would allow for the occasional extra text, but the scroll bar does not work. The text box is in a continuous subform within a subform. It has no margins. What am I missing? |

Scroll bars in subform text boxes
I believe the text box has to be a certain height before it will let you add
a scroll bar. Brag the box a little taller and then try. "BruceM" wrote: I have used scroll bars in text boxes with no problems. However, that has now changed.

Scroll bars in subform text boxes
That seems to be the case from what I have been able to discover so far.
Too bad there isn't some documentation about it. Thanks for the reply. "Golfinray" wrote in message ... I believe the text box has to be a certain height before it will let you add a scroll bar.
