Hi,

I have got a continuous form in Access 2003. When the user double clicks I
like to increase the height of the detail section to fill most of the page
so the user can read a very long text field better.

Here is a sample :) This is the current visible part of the window.
I double click on row3. Now the height of all rows is expanded to be about 4
rows high.
-----------------------
|Visible row1, rec5|
|Visible row2, rec6|
|Visible row3, rec7|
|Visible row4, rec8|
|Visible row5, rec9|
-----------------------
The current recordset is still rec7 (row3) but rec5 (row1) is now displayed.
-----------------------
|Visible row1, rec5|
| |
| |
| |
|Visible row2, rec6|
-----------------------

How would I make the current record the top most visible record on the
continuos form before I change the height?

Thanks a lot
Patrick Wolf

Thanks that was exactly what I was looking for.

We need Access 2005.Net than all these necessary things would be already
incorporated :)

All the best
