Subform source object misaligned?

Hi,

I have a form with a tab control where the tabs have subforms (well, 3 of 4
do). All the subform controls are set to lineup, and the top and left format
property settings for the subforms are all the same.

Anyway, the main problem is that one of my source objects for one of the
subforms doesn't fit inside the subform control. The top of the source
object is higher than the top of the subform control. It's also pushed a
little to the right of where it should fit snug against the left side of the
subform control. It also doesn't want to display the vertical scroll bar for
some reason, probably because it's pushed up and to the left of where it
should be.

Any ideas? It's driving me nuts...

Tahnks,

I've removed it and readded it and that does no good. All the properties
appear to be the same except the left/top/

Left _ Top is the starting place for all forms and controls. Are you sure
that your subform control is on the tab? Try making it small and placing it
on the tab (which will turn dark while hovering the control over it, then
resizing after it is on the control. You can also set the Left and Top
properties in the property sheet.

Thanks for the reply, AM,

I'm sure it's on the tab. I've also tried making it narrower and narrower
until it's much narrower than the other subform source objects (they are all
continuous forms).

Also, I was using the property sheet to check/adjust the left/top properties
for each subform control.

It's gremlins I think.
