I think you are talking about vertical scrolling in a subform which I
wouldn't mind fixing as well (I saw on the subform a while back that
they had some fields grouped and displayed all on one line somehow but
I can't view the demo anymore -Firefox has detected that the server is
redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never
complete).
The problem I was stating opaquely is that in the standard table view
I have too many columns resulting in the user needing to scroll to the
right in order to click on an action (edit) and then when the subform
opens they have to scroll to the left to view the editable fields on
the subform.
I don't have the option of hiding the columns (I don't get to decide
what is displayed) so I need a solution that will wrap the record
displaying it on two or three lines.
