OK, first I thought you said you _could not_ change the UI, but now I
understand that you _don't want to_ change the UI.
Surely, I understand, and you are certainly entitled to your view, but you
do, I hope, realize that you should not hold your breath until you get the
fix. They prioritize those, and some fixes never get done if they decide
that it won't affect many users.
My view has always been, if the users of the database application need the
information (and I wouldn't have implemented 'whatever it was' if they
didn't) it doesn't matter whose fault the problem is, I'm going to get the
information for them if I can. I'm in this business to solve the
user's/customer's business problems, not to make a statement that I'm
certain-sure the developers will not even be aware of.

Why I don't wanna change my layout? because I use my subForm to load
three different forms. In one of them the CommandButton must be in the
middle just next to the search field. and it is different for the two
others. Of course, I can change by code the layout and do lot of
tuning so my form looks the same after all, but I decided not to! Why?
because I think I have lost enough time on detecting it was a bug that
didn't come from my code, but from Access Developers. They should have
tested their code in all different ways before lunching the upgrade. I
prefer to wait for a fix patch.
Hope I have helped you understand.
