I would like to know if it is possible to freeze columns on an Access form. I know how to do this in a datasheet view but cannot figure out how to do it in a form. The reason I am doing it in a form rather than in datasheet is because I need to have more control over my column headings. I am trying to put over 20 Columns (Fields) on a single page Across. So currently I have the fields across my form in the detail section and my header labels on top of the detail section in the Page header section as Follows


See attached word doc

I would like to freeze the task section of the form. Also I want the header label to move with the field when I use the scroll bar to go beyond the right page margin
Is this possible?

Thanks for any help.
 
I don't think you can attach documents here so we can't see what you mean. However I did FREEZE COLUMNS in datasheet view of a form. Have you tried it?
