Combo Box Design Problem

[Bob]

On my Form I have a list of expenses and then when I have completed that
expense another line appears underneath to add another expenses, the problem
is the font is set at 10 and the box height is correct for that font size.
But there is a wide border between each expense, how can I make this border
thinner.
Thanks in advance.........Bob Vance

Bob,

If you go to the design view of the form, you should be able to manually
decrease the height of the Detail section of the form. This may
necessitate moving the combobox (and any other controls) up so they are
closer to the top edge of the section.

Thanks Steve, found there was a delete button stopping me from dragging up
the border. Made the delete button smaller and that brought the line up. Now
I have a delete button that has lost half of its icon on it.....Thanks

Steve, the text box only lets me put data into 3/4 of the window, how can I
extend the area for text inside the window..Thanks

Bob,

Sorry, I am not sure what you mean. 3/4 of the window as per height or
width? You mean within the textbox, or the number of controls in the
form, or the number of records, or the actual amount of data per record?

Ooops Sorry but the window (text box) will only let put 50 letters in it, I
forgot how to change the field..Thanks bob

Bob,

Ah, ok now I understand!

I think you will need to go to the design view of the table, and change
the Field Size property of the field in question.
