Controlling Lines on Reports and Forms



Ever have trouble creating a straight line when working with a new form in Design View?

From the Menu, select VIEW and TOOLBOX. In the toolbox, select the line tool, then click and drag to make your line.

  • By holding down the CTRL key and using the arrow keys, you change the position of the line within the form.

  • By holding down the SHIFT key and using the arrow keys, you change the length or angle of the line, giving you the control you need to keep those lines straight and where you want them.
