Example Apps for Businesses, Schools & Developers

Version 4.0         Last Updated 10 Oct 2021               Approx 0.9 MB

This example app shows how, at the click of a button, one or more subforms can be:
a)  Shrunk & hidden
b)  Made visible & enlarged

The idea is to remove unwanted empty space in the main form when the subform is hidden

It was originally written in response to a question by Access World Forums member psych0tic1 in this thread: Another Visible/Hidden Form Field Question

There are 2 versions available:

a)   Single subform which can grow or shrink at the click of a button

FormShrink
FormStretch
b)   Multiple subforms each of which can grow or shrink independently at the click of a button

4SubformsShrink
4SubformsStretch
