Access 2013 with mdb file: How do I make header/footer visible?

Topic

New Reply

With Access 2013, I can’t find out how to make the header/footer appear other than to use the header/footer logo, title, or date and time. If any of these buttons are used to make the header/footer visible, then you can’t save the form if it has code.

Other than copying an existing form with a header and footer (then completely stripping it and building again), how can I accomplish this? I cannot find a command that does this either.

I’m not exactly a newbie as I’ve been building in Access from version 1.0. This has me stumped.

Hi,

In Access 2013, just right-click anywhere on the form or report design surface while you are in Design View. On the shortcut menu you’ll see options to toggle the Form/Report Headers and Footers.

Hope that helps,

Thanks Jeff. Pretty obvious once you know about it.
