Arrange Table Windows

I'm trying to create a new database in Access 2007, and can't find the
command to resize and arrange tables, within a window.

MVP,

Resize and arrange the table sto what? You should be using the tables to
enter data. You could design your form to look like a table, however then I
would question whether or not your tables are set up like an Excel
Spreadsheet.

I believe that Gina meant to write: "You should *not* be using the
tables to
enter data".

She may have a trick keyboard like mine which sometimes distorts my
meaning :))

You have a very distinguished email address (lookup MVP in Google!) :)

I wonder if you're thinking of the "Relationships" window? Or are you
simply trying to arrange table windows on your screen so you can see
them all? What would be Window -> Tile Horizontally/Vertically in
Access 2003? (not near my machine with 2007 installed, sadly).

Access 2007 uses tabbed windows to display each object you have
opened (tables, forms, reports, etc.) Each object appears to the
right of the Navigation pane filling the entire space to the right
of the Navigation pane with a tab for each object visible, .

To return to the look familiar from 2003 where each object was in
its own window, click the Office Button, choose the "Access Options
button at bottom. The choose "Current Database" from the left and
change the Document Window Options to "Overlapping Windows." You'll
need to close and re-open the db to apply the changes. Once you
re-open the db, use the Window group on the Home tab to switch
windows as well as arrange the windows by tiling or cascading.

I hope this helps.

Julie
