Unable to resize a tabbed form

I am making a multiple-paged form with each page being a tab. Upon preview I
see that my pages are too big and just need to resize it a bit. However it
will not allow me to do this for some reason. Does anyone have any idea what
I might have set to prevent me from resizing?
 
Just a guess: Access won't let you resize tab controls to a size that won't
hold all the controls on all tabs. Check *all* your tabs and you'll probably
find a control (at the bottom or right side) that is limiting your
downsizing attempts.

HTH,
 
Thanks for the idea. I checked though, and I don't have any controls that
lie outside the margins...it looks like I have
sized the page larger than the page so the printer prints out partially
blank pages ... just a line of grey along the edges.

Click to expand...

Not "outside the margins". Inside them. You can drag the dimensions of a
TabControl smaller from any direction until you "hit" something on one of the
pages. If your dragging stops then you are hitting some control on one of the
pages.
