Hi,

I'm having a problem with the layout of a form. I have
some fields in the "Detail", and 2 fields in the "Footer".
When I look at the form in design view, there is no space
between the "Detail" section and the "Footer" section.
But, when I look at the form in form view, there is a big
space between the two. I'd like to get rid of this space,
but not sure how to do that. I do need to have those
fields in the "Footer", so moving them up into "Details"
is not an option.

Thanks for any help/pointers.

The stuff in the Footer "hugs the bottom" so the shorter you make the form window the
closer it will be to the detail controls. You should be able to just make the form
smaller to get the look you want. If you don't want the user to be able to change
that then you need to use dialog style border so the size cannot be altered.
