Here is a note that Macdermott posted about this issue:
"OK, I finally got out the toolbar and looked at it myself.
It behaves exactly as you describe.
A little more research shows that it is intended to be used with Data
Access
Pages, not regular forms.
So I guess you're stuck with either
using the Format Menu items (I know, more clicks), or
importing your custom toolbar into new databases.
Unless, of course, you're an advanced enough programmer to write your
own
Add-In. <g>
Sorry I couldn't be more help...

Do you know how modify the normal template for Access so these buttons
will be available all the time?

Your exactly correct I did not see the size buttons either but that is not my issue. When I open up my toolbars from the view menu I have several choices like "Database", "Web", Menu Bar" etc. I also so have a toolbar called "Alignment and Sizing". When I select it will appear in my Access Window and I can dock it or move it around just like any other menu. It is grayed out and I can't use it even when I select several objects in Design View. This is the same for me on both Access 2002 and Access 2003. I'm not real sure which version of MS Office these apps came from but I kong that I don't have Office Developer. So this feature should be standard.
So did you add those commands to the menu for FormDesign instead? One never knows if something was created at the MS factory simply to frustrate the developers out there. If I can add them to my standard FormDesign toolbar, I assume you can do the same in the new versions and if they work, ignore the one that doesn't.

What version are you using? In A97, I don't see them. I could not find the Size options (widest/narrowist, shortest/tallest) but the left/right/top/bottom I could.
I selected View/Customize, selected the toolbar FormDesign, selected Commands, and then dragged the Left/Right/Top/Bottom buttons onto it. Works fine for me. Is that what you are referring to? I wish I could find the Size buttons tho.

Since the FormDesign toolbar is always available to me when I am
designing a form, I click View/Customize, select/check FormDesign,
click Commands tab, slide down the command list to Forms/Report Design,
and drag the menu items I want to add to the FormsDesign toolbar.
If later on you want to remove them you simply do a View/Customize,
select/check FormDesign and press Reset. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

Hi C# wizards,
I would like to ask you the following question:
I'm working on a program with a mainform (a mdiParent called frmMain) and a
childform (called frmNieuwk).
I use the library from CommandBar that gives me the new Luna look from
Micros$oft, so that gives me a toolbar + menubar with several buttons.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
