How do I remove a border around a box

[forest8]

Hi

I've tried the properties of the box --

Border Style = Transparent
Border Width = Hairline
Special Effect = Flat

But there's still a border on my box.

How do I get rid of it?

Thank you in advance

Setting the BorderStyle to transparent should hide the control border.
If that hasn't done it, perhaps it's not that control's border but
another control placed on top of it, perhaps a Box control.

If all else fails, why not delete the control, save the form change,
then add a new control to replace the deleted one.

These settings should do the job! I'd go back and check these properties
again. You don't mention which version of Access you're using, but in 2007
some property values are not saved unless after setting them you move to
another property before exiting the Properties window.

Where are you doing this?

In form view, or in form design view?

If you totally delete the control (make a backup first), does the box go
away?

If you add a new control, does it have a box?

Which version of Access?

Is this true for all your boxes, or just one?

More info, please...
