In-Depth Information
The form design grid is divided into three sections:
Form Header Contains information to be displayed at the top of the form, such as
a title.
Detail Contains a text box control and an associated label control for each of the
fields you selected for inclusion in the form.
Form Footer Can contain information to be displayed at the bottom of the form.
By default, this section is blank, so it is closed.
In Design view, you can work with the form in the following ways:
Adjust the size of sections.
Apply a theme.
Change the size of controls.
Arrange controls logically to facilitate data entry.
Adjust the properties of form elements in the Property Sheet pane.
Add fields from the Field List pane.
Add controls to limit data entry choices or add functionality to the form.
SEE ALSO For information about adding controls to forms, see “Adding controls” later
in this chapter.

In this exercise, you'll use the Form wizard to create a form that displays a list of product
categories. You'll then modify the form in Design view by formatting its title, making a
control inaccessible to users, changing a label, and adding and resizing a control for a new
field.
