Tabs and subforms

[Stephen Glynn]

I'm trying to put a subform on a separate tab page of my main form
rather than having it appear at the bottom.

This works well, except that when I open the main form in form view it
cuts the top off, obscuring the tabs at the top of the page, so I have
to scroll up about a quarter of an inch to see them so I can click onto
my next tab. I suspect this is something to do with the fact the top
of the subform control on the second tab page is, by necessity, a
quarter of an inch or so below the top of the main form. But, whatever
the cause, is there a solution to this problem?

That happens when the subform control is not large enough to contain the entire
form within (even if just by a few pixels).

That's not the case, here, though. I've played around with the size of
the main form, the tab control, the subform control and the size of the
form that fits into it so that I can clearly see daylight between them
all, and it's still doing it.

Is the first object in your tab sequence a control at the top or near the
bottom?

It's a text box near the top of the subform.
