OK, but using the Tab Control and placing the columns on each tab, in whichever order you determine, is better and easier for the user because they don't have to look at 150 controls at one time.
 
I try to create forms where the user does not have to scroll up or down, nor left to right (with the exception of continuous and datasheet forms) to see the information on it. As a user, this is very annoying to me. So I use the Tab Control. I have less of an aversion to clicking a tab button than to scrolling up, down,  left, or right.

Thanks John. Unfortunately the columns can not be grouped on similar characteristics.

Why not use a TabControl and then group the columns on each tab by similar characteristics.

Subject: [AccessDevelopers] Displaying SQL Temp Table data on a form

 

Hi,

I have an Access ADP connected to a SQL Server.

I'm looking to dislay the results of a SQL Temp Table in a form.
The challenge is the number of columns in the Temp table is variable.
(could be up to 150 columns = but I don't what to impose a maximum number of columns to be displayd)

To display the results of the temp table on a form, I need to somehow customize the form (or use some other control - flexgrid...etc).

Can anyone offer any suggestions???


thanks,
Angelo
