Is there any way to make the column headings in a subform in datasheet mode word wrap. I have several columnames that are longer, but the data is short and I would like to illimnate having to scroll over. But I don't want to use an acronym.

Thanks

I know no way of doing this in Datasheet mode. But if you use a Columnar form, you can easily do it. Is that a problem? To my mind a columnar form is just a prettier version of Datasheet.

no there is no way but if you creat a continous form with no exstra space arount the text boxs it will look like datasheet view but give you the flexablity to change the lok more. you will loose some functionality though.
