Form building in 2007

When I size a control all the contols/labels resize along with it.
How do I "ungroup" controls so that when I size one I'm not sizing them all.
Cutting and repasting them onto the form breaks this behavior but is
cumbersome.

Yes, this can be done. I have Access 2007 at home but not at work
(which is where I am right now), so don't remember the EXACT steps,
but if are in design view of the form you can select the controls that
are currently "grouped", then click on the Design tab (I think???)
above you should find an option to "ungroup" them. I can't remember if
it's called "ungroup" or something else, but it's toward the left side
of the screen. Sorry to be so vague, but hope this helps

In form design, select the controls, click on th Arrange tab, then click on
Remove in the Control Layout ribbon.
