Form appearance

[Guest]

I am not sure where I saw a form that had a command button that would make
the bottom of the form appear and then with another button would disappear.
I have a large form but I need to have more fields appear in the form but be
accessable when needed. they are only used by certain employees and not all
users have need of these fields. I would like them to remain hidden and that
appear only with clicked. How can this be done? Is the FormFooter used?
Also, the bottom part of the form is not visible, it is added in length when
the command button is used. Also the bottom is not there and the space just
blank.

Any suggestions?

There are a couple of ways you can accomplish this. One would be to put the
extra controls in the form's footer and make it visible or not visible as
needed:
Me.formfooter.visible = true

If you have a large number of controls that may not fit on the screen, you
may want to consider putting the controls on a different tab in a tab control.
