Default Subform Presentation

When I set up a subform, it seems to default to the
multiple-records-one-record-per-line format. I want to show one record per
page, allowing scrolling. How do I get that accomplished. I've tried changing
the "allow" properties, but it no be workin'....

Ideas? (Access 2007 Beta 2)

Default Subform Presentation

Hi Jim

Set the subform to continuous forms. Resize the form in design view to the
same size as the space you have allowed for it on the main form (basically so
it fills the area). Set scroll bars to both or just vertical

When you open the main form you will be able to scroll down through linked
subforms.

Hope this helps

Jim,

Set the DefaultView property of the subform to Single Form. Strictly
speaking, this means the property of the form *itself* that is within the
subform *control* on the main form. Click first on the subform and then the
little square at the upper left corner of the subform window, then press F4
to display the properties.

Hope that helps.
