MS Access 2003: Ungroup controls on a form

This MSAccess tutorial explains how to ungroup 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 ungroup controls on a Form?

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

Microsoft Access

Under the Format menu, select Ungroup.

Now your controls should behave independently, and not as a Group.
