how to vertical align a text box?

[mrweatherbee]

Hey guys,

This seems like it should be simple, but I just can't figure it out...I have a text box on a form and report that I want to vertically align in the center, but I just can't find the control or commmand or any code to figure out how to do this? If anyone can help me out with this i'd appreciate it...thanks!

One way would be to make the text box the entire width of the report and center the text. Access does not have a feature/tool that centers controls on a form or report.

thanks, but actually i meant vertically aligning? so if i had a text box like

___
|
|
___|

the text would appear
___
|
x |
___|

rather than

___
x |
|
___|

hopefully that made sense...

Depending on what is going into the textbox, you could write code to modify the top and bottom margins. I don't know of anyway in MS Access to set that automatically.

Could you adjust the size of the text box so that the text does not need centering? Why is your text box so big? ljprodev@yahoo.com
