MS Access 2003: Group controls on a form

This MSAccess tutorial explains how to group controls on a form in Access 2003 (with screenshots and step-by-step instructions).

Question: In Microsoft Access 2003/XP/2000/97, how do I group controls on a Form?

Answer:You've probably seen controls grouped together on a Form before and wondered how this was done.

To group controls, open your form in Design View. Then select all of the controls that you would like to group together. In this example, we've selected the Product ID, Product Name, Quantity Per Unit, and Unit Price text boxes and their associated labels.

Under the Format menu, select Group.

Now your controls should behave as a "Group".
