Default scrolling programmatically?

Hi,
is there any way one can programmatically scroll up and down vertically?
I ask because when I open the form scroll bar is not in it's most upper postion but couple of millimeters down
which is very annoying because some labeles in top of the form are not visible that way.
Thanx
alekm

Default scrolling programmatically?

Hi Alekm,

Hope this solves your problem of lables visible in the top form...

Create and customize a scrolling text control

Open a data access page in Design view (Design view: A window that shows
the design of these database objects: tables, queries, forms, reports,
macros, and data access pages. In Design view, you can create new database
objects and modify the design of existing ones.).
Click the Scrolling Text tool in the toolbox (toolbox: A set of tools that
is available in Design view to add controls to a form, report, or data
access page. The toolset available in page Design view is different from
the toolset available in form and report Design view.).
Do one of the following:
Create a bound control that displays data

Click Field List on the toolbar to display the field list (field list: A
window that lists all the fields in the underlying record source or
database object, except in data access page Design view. In data access
page Design view, it lists all the record sources and their fields in the
underlying database.).
From the field list, drag the selected field to the data access page. Place
the upper-left corner of the icon where you want the upper-left corner of
the scrolling text control to be.
Create an unbound control

In the data access page, click where you want the upper-left corner of the
scrolling text control to be; Microsoft Access creates a default-sized
control. To create a scrolling text control of a particular size, click the
page, and then drag until the control is the size you want.
Click inside the scrolling text control, and select the default text that
is displayed in the control.
Type the message that you want to appear.

Customize a scrolling text control

Open a data access page in Design view (Design view: A window that shows
the design of these database objects: tables, queries, forms, reports,
macros, and data access pages. In Design view, you can create new database
objects and modify the design of existing ones.).
Select the scrolling text control, and then click Properties on the
toolbar to display the control's property sheet.
Do one or more of the following:
Change the speed

In the TrueSpeed property box, click True.
In the ScrollDelay property box, type the number of milliseconds to delay
between each repetition of the scrolling text.
In the ScrollAmount property box, type the number of pixels (pixel: A
single unit of measurement that your computer's display hardware uses to
paint images on your screen. These units, which often appear as tiny dots,
compose the pictures displayed by your screen.) you want the scrolling text
to move in the time that you specified in the ScrollDelay property box. The
ScrollAmount property sets the spacing between each repetition of text.
Note When the TrueSpeed property is set to True, scrolling text speed is
determined by the ScrollDelay and ScrollAmount properties. For example, if
the ScrollDelay property is set to 65 and the ScrollAmount property is set
to 10, the scrolling text advances 10 pixels every 65 milliseconds. When
the TrueSpeed property is set to False, the shortest delay between
repetitions of text is 60 milliseconds.

Change the motion

Do one of the following:
To make the text scroll continuously in the control like a stock ticker,
set the Behavior property to Scroll.
To make the text slide from the starting point to the opposite edge of the
control and then remain on the screen, set the Behavior property to Slide.
To make the text go back and forth between the starting point and the
opposite edge of the control, and have it remain on the screen at all
times, set the Behavior property to Alternate.
Change the number of times that scrolling text repeats

Do one of the following:

To make the text scroll continuously, type -1 in the Loop property box.
To make the text scroll a specific number of times and then disappear, type
an integer in the Loop property box. For example, if you set the Loop
property to 5, the text will scroll five times.
Change the direction

In the Direction property box, click the value that indicates the direction
in which you want the text to scroll.

Also For Further Information : Look into Add or remove scroll bars
