Aligning single object to page

[John]

Access 2007

I have a single textbox on my form.
After selecting the textbox, how does one tell Access to align the textbox to the center of the page?
The alignment controls are all grey.

Thanks in advance.

You have to click on the box then use the alignment. Go under format, align.

This changes the alignment of the text within the textbox.
My goal is to have the textbox be centered with respect to the form.
In Design view, select the textbox.
Arrange tab | Control Alignment | the icons are gray, so you cannot align
the textbox to the page.

Please let me know if you have a way to make this work. Thanks

Use the rulers on top and side in design view to center the textbox.
Then use movesize on the form load event to keep the form size the same each
time.
