Grouping in a form

I have a form in continuous view with student records that are sorted based
on the class they are in.
Ex:
Algebra -Mindy
Algebra - Laurie
Calculus - Joe
Calculus - Duston
Geometry -Mike

Is there a way to put a line, space, or something else as a break between
each group. I really want the form to behave like the grouping in a report.
I need to see all the groups, but right now they just run together.

Thanks,
Beth
 
Beth,

You could try Conditional Formatting (Under Format Menu in design view) to
set the backcolor of the class field.

HTH,

Unfortunately, there is no way to do visual separation of groups in a
continuous or datasheet form. The suggestion to use conditional formatting
will only work if there are no more than 4 groups. (3 conditionals and 1
default. You only real option is to filter by group and see only one group
at a time.
