Default Continous form To look like DataSheet view

I want to make a continuous form look like a datasheet. I need to do this as
I need the datasheet look but need the functionality of a form for
wordwrapping etc.

Any Ideas,

Rob

A Flex Grid control may do what you want (if you are prepared to write
a bit of VBA code). Have a look at my Flex Grid demo program at -

for some examples.

What difficulty are you having? If you make a one row detail section containing
only TextBoxes without labels butted right up against each other it will look
pretty much like a datasheet. Use the form header for your labels.
