Default Access 2010 Ribbon: Possible to have buttons/controls next to each other? - 01-06-2012 , 05:30 PM






Hi,

My buttons are appearing on top of each other by default, like a grid
I suppose. Is it possible to make them appear next to each other like
they do in Access 2003? Like how the group names do at the bottom in
A2K10. They automatically appear below the previous button or
control.

Actually if you specify size="large", then in almost call cases, the will
line up side by side.

Thanks Albert. That worked great. I was messing with Box and Button
groups but I couldn't get them to do what you just suggested. Nice.
