SUMMARY

Microsoft Access includes a tool called the Microsoft Script Editor that you can use to edit the script behind data access pages. There are four ways to open the Script Editor from Design view of a data access page.

MORE INFORMATION

To open the Script Editor from Design view of a data access page, use one of the following methods.

Method 1

Right-click an empty portion of the data access page, and then on the shortcut menu, click Microsoft Script Editor.

Method 2

On the Tools menu, point to Macro, and then click Microsoft Script Editor.

Method 3

Press ALT+SHIFT+F11.

Method 4

On the View menu, click HTML Source.

NOTE: If you open the Script Editor by using Method 4, you will see fewer menu options unless you already have an instance of the Script Editor open, and you opened that instance by using one of the other methods.
