Can User Change FontSize in SFRM of MDE?

[Andy]

Hi;

Can a User Change FontSize in SFRM of MDE?

Added a custom menubar to allow a user to change the FontSize in a SFRM of
an MDE file.

When the sSFRM is selected the FontSize menu item grays out.

Can/Has this been done?

Thank You.

Change the fontsize >of what<?

me![blah].fontsize = 99 will happily change the fontsize of the control
named 'blah' in the current form, regardless of whether the form is a main
form or sub form, and regardless of whether the db is an mdb or an mde.

HTH,

Should have been clearer.

Can a user select from a menu item to change the font size "On The Fly"?

Andy, you say "when the subform is selected" the menu option is disabled.
Strictly speaking, a subform control can not be selected in form view (you
can select it in design view). In form view, either an individual control,
such as a text box, is selected, or a section, such as the detail section or
the form header or form footer section, is selected.

If a section is selected, the font size command is disabled, because a
section does not have a FontSize property. If an individual control, such as
a text box, is selected, the command should be available.

In an MDE, the change can not be saved - the FontSize property will revert
to its original value the next time the form is opened. To make the change
permanent in an MDE, you'll need to save the user's choices and reapply them
in the Open event of the form.
