  8. Get to know Design view • If you want to add or change controls, you want to be in Design view. To get there, click the Design button . • Design view is also where you can format the colors and lettering styles of controls, and where you set control properties, such as borders and margins. • After you add controls, you can set their properties, such as how many characters someone can type in a text box, and change their formatting.

  9. Set control properties • All controls have properties. Properties determine how a control looks and what it does. • A text box, for example, has properties that can specify its size, allow it to grow or shrink, and provide it with scrollbars. • To display a control’s properties, you would select the control and click the Properties button on the Form Design or Report Design toolbar. Related properties are grouped under tabs. • If you clicked a property name or the box next to it, you might see an arrow, and clicking on that would display a list of choices. Or you might see three dots. Those usually mean that Access can help you build a rule for the property, in a dialog box called a builder, which would open if you clicked the dots.
