Hi,

This is probably a very easy question. I have several
forms with 1 to 3 subforms in each. I have removed the
scroll bars on the subforms because they were causing too
much confusion; parts to the right were getting cut off
the screen, and people kept forgetting they needed to
scroll over. It actually looks a lot better without the
scroll bars but, the problem now is that with no ability
to scroll down, each subform only shows a part of the way
down and then to get to the rest of the subform you need
to tab. Each time you tab, it takes you back to viewing
the top of the form. This will also probably cause
headaches in the office. I have set the subforms to "Can
Grow" - YES but, that doesn't seem to help. Ideally, I'd
like to get rid of the need to tab altogether and just
have the whole subform show up. But, if that's not
possible -I need to find a way to stop the view from
moving to the top every time you hit the tab key. Thanks
a lot!

Can't you just make the MainForm and TabControl large enough to see the
entire SubForm?
