How can I make the appearance of an Access form different?
I want to position fields in different spots and have each a different size.
All the fields seem to all change and I cannot make each to chnage sizes
diffferently?
 
For starters, those are not fields, they are controls. Regardless of what
Microsoft documents say, they are controls. Fields belong to tables and
queries. (Just want to get the terminology set so we know what we are
talking about)

If you open your form in design view and select a specific control, you
should be able to do pretty much whatever you need to do by using the
Properties dialog and by selecting the control so you can move and size it.
 
I think the real question is in earlier verisons if you are in design view of
a form you could select the control you wanted to change or resize and the
box would resize. In the 2007 Access version all of the controls boxes or
fields in your form will change. I'm not sure how you ungroup them so you
can individually resize or reposition?
