I put together a form with a details section containing text boxes linked to
various fields and a subform. I also have a footer section with one text box
in it. When I view the form, the details and footer section are divided by a
blank section with two section divider lines. Anyone know what this is and
how I can remove it? (Access 2003).
 
You are probably seeing the divider line of the detail section.

In you form's format properties, set the DivdingLines property to No.
 
That's what it looks like to me. It is the space between the detail section
and the footer section. Did you try setting the form's DividingLines
property as I suggested?

The first line is the deviding line of the detail section. The second is
the dividing line of the footer section.
 
I did set it to No. Then there was a large blank space without the lines. Why
would there be two dividing lines between each section? And there is no blank
space between my Header and Details section. Just a single line.

That space is the space between your detail section and your footer section.
A footer section always sticks to the bottom of the form, so if the total
height of the form is greater than the heights of the Header, Detail, and
Footer sections combined, then the leftover space appears between the detail
and the footer sections.
