ACC: New Label Controls Inherit Form Wizards' Label Text Align (89604)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Access 1.0
- Microsoft Access 1.1
- Microsoft Access 2.0
This article was previously published under Q89604 Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.
SYMPTOMS
If you create a form with the Single-Column or Main/Subform Form Wizards,
the TextAlign properties of new label controls added to the new form will
have different defaults than they do if you use the Tabular or Graph Form
Wizards, or if you create a new form without using a Form Wizard at all.
CAUSE
In Microsoft Access, controls added to a form created with Form Wizards
default to the same properties as the Wizard-created controls.
For example, when you create a blank form (by not using a Form Wizard), a
label control's TextAlign property normally defaults to General. With the
Single-Column and Main/Subform Form Wizards, however, label controls
placed on the new form default to Right alignment. As a result, all
subsequent new labels added to that form will also default to Right
alignment. This is, however, only a default value that you can change.
NOTE: Tabular and Graph Form Wizard labels, as well as labels on forms
created without Form Wizards, default to General text alignment.
STATUS
This behavior no longer occurs in Microsoft Access version 7.0.
