I have a scoll bar appearing that shouldn't be.

[HeatherK21]

I have created a form as part of my database. When I am in design the scroll bar does not show, but when I go into browse it shows up. It is really long and has many arrows in it. When I navigate to other screens the scroll bar is like stuck on the screen and is displayed on every screen that I go to. I have seen this in the past and they would just disappear when I logged in at a later time, but this time it is always there. Any ideas? I am new to this board so if there is something I need to add (information) please let me know.

Looks like Approach is having a problem with your video adapter. It should be the other way round, in Design you get a vertical scroll bar but in browse, one is only displayed if there are objects below the bottom of the screen. Approach is a bit sensitive to some video adapters; it isn't unusual for all other apps to be fine but Approach has display problems.

You could try the following:

See if there's an updated video driver on the manufacturer's web site.

Move objects away from the margins

Increase/decrease screen resolution
