How do I use Pane Splitter in Access 2000

I am developing an application in MS-Access. I want to create a window with
two panes (left and right) as in Windows Explorer. I thought there was a
ready-made control to use but cannot find one. I want the panes to be used
in much a similar way as in Windows Explorer. I am using Microsoft Access
2000, and 2003.
 
Presumably you want a list of records on the left to navigate through.
When you select one, you want that record shown on the right for editing.

You can design that kind of form without any code, if you use an unbound
form with a list box on the left. Then create a subform that shows the
detail record on the right. Set the LinkMasterFields property of the subform
control to the name of the listbox, and the LinkChildFields property to the
matching field in the subform.
 
Thanks for the tip. Actually I want the panes to be resizable using a
splitter bar (or something like that), so that when I drag the bar to one
side the size of the panes should be adjusted accordingly.
