Form Field Properties

After you arrange the form fields, change the view to Form View to see how it looks with the data. Are the fields for LastName and City wide enough to see all of the text?

 

Use your keyboard to tab from the beginning of the form to the end. Does the cursor skip past the phone number? Does the form jump to the next record? All of these behaviors can be controlled by their Properties.

 

OK, you tested the form in the Form

 View, now change back to the Design View and makes some improvements.
