The Amazing Disappearing Scrollbar...

Hi guys, this is one of those "Huh???" situations. On one of my forms, I have two subforms. One is normally hidden, and becomes visible only with a click action. Everything works just fine EXCEPT... certain records displaying in this subform lose their vertical scrollbar with no apparent rhyme or reason. Yet the next record or the record before show theirs. Nothing changes (except data, of course) from displayed record to displayed record, so I am really at a loss to figure out what is going on. The users are annoyed as they cannot see the data below the subform boundary unless they put focus on the subform and tab down, and I'm annoyed at my inability to figure this one out. Any clues or hints?

This is probably a stupid question, but in the properties for your subform, have you set the "scroll bars" property to "vertical only"?
 
Yeah, that's ok, the thing that is whacking my brain is it's only happening to about 10% of the displayed records... the rest show just fine! I've looked over and over at the individual records and there doesn't seem to be any pattern in the "non-show" problem *that I can see*.
