I have a form with a subform. The Record number box appears on both the subform and the form.

When the user presses the page next (arrow to right) - it causes the subform child record to be written before the form's parent record.

So I'm trying to hide the record number box or record scroll box that automatically comes on the form.

It is a one-page form and should not need scrolling in an add mode.

I know this is probably easy - but I'm a newby. I'm looking to do something like

WhateverItsCalled.Visible = False.

I'm I close? Do you know what "WhateverItsCalled" should be.

Thanks!!
 
Hi Victory92

Open the form in "Design View". Get the form properties dialog box up. If it's not already open, double-click the small square at the top left of the form (Between the verticle and horizontal rulers).

Now, click the "All" tab and look for the field called "Navigation Buttons" (Possible the 16th field down the list). Set the value to "no" and you will hide the record navigation buttons.

N.B. Other useful things to hide here are: Record SelectorS & Scroll Bars depending on the type of form you have.

Hope this helps
