Field Name alignment

[Ikan]

Hi,

Would like to know how to left or right align Field Name in table view. If a Field Name in table view contains two words how can I make the second word appear beneath the first word in table view so that it appears as such in print preview

You can't do either.

Table and Query datasheets are not for presentation or data entry so they don't
provide these features. Forms and Reports _are_ and do.

This is not at all what tables are designed for. A table is
nothing more than a container for your pieces of data. You
should never be using tables as a presentation of that data.
This is the sole purpose of reports. They exist to allow you
to display and print your data and format it to your hearts
content.

Short answer is no, you can't do that with a table.

Ikan,
You can't in Datasheet view.

Use a continuous form and you can right align and/or have the label space on
2 lines, but not in Datasheet view.

Besides which, why are you wanting to Preview and/or Print a table?
Tables are for storing data, not for printing.

Make a report. Lay the detail section out as though it were a datasheet.
You can left or right align the field labels and also use Shift + Enter at a
break point within the label caption to have it print on 2 lines.
Reports have display versatility. Datasheets do not.
