Q: 

Access Form Design - subforms going crazy

Hi,

im fighting with access 2007 right now. i cant make the form designer to cooperate with me, especialy when using subforms. the just do what they want.

does anybody know about a good guide how to layout beautiful forms (that include subforms) with access 2007. what a mess...

thank you!

A: 

Access Developer's Handbook is a great resource for all things Access.

[When I first used Access (some time ago), this book showed me how to layout a form with a subform, itself containing another subform. I can't recommended this book enough.]

Note however that this book won't tell you about the new features in A2007.

...and the new features in regard to form layouts are pretty extensive in A2007. There's at least one whole new view, the split form.
