WD97: Can't Access Form Properties With Frame Control (157397)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q157397 SYMPTOMS
When you use the Visual Basic Editor to insert a Frame control that covers
an entire UserForm, you cannot access the properties for the form.
Note that the Object box does not list the UserForm property sheet if the
frame is selected, even when the Frame control does not cover the entire
form.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, resize the frame control using one of the
following methods.
Method 1: Resize the Frame Control by Changing Property Values
If the frame control extends to the boundary of the form, change the
value for the height or width in the properties window and then, click
the form to access the properties window for the form.
Method 2: Resize the Frame Using the Resizing Handles
If you see the sizing handles of the frame control, resize the frame by
dragging the sizing handles inward. Then, click the form to access the
properties window for the form.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article.
