How do you undock a property sheet in access?

[Mike]

Hi all,


I'm long time Access developer in Office 2003. I just started using Windows
7 and Office 2007. I asked this question in the general forum, but maybe
Instal and Configure is a more appropriate location for it.

Is there a way to move or undock a property sheet in Acces 2007?

E.g., in form design, the property sheet for a textbox or other object
always docks to the right side of the program window. I can drag its left
edge to change its width, but it cannot be undocked or moved. Searching
google, I see folks talk about getting the four-arrow mouse pointer when
hovering around the title area at the top of the sheet, but that doesn't
happen for me, the best I can do is the two headed pointer when hovering over
the left edge of the sheet, which allows its width to be changed.

I do get the four arrow pointer if I right click any main program window
and click Move from the context menu, but that only affect the entire window,
and can't be made to work with the property sheet window.


Thanks,

You can property sheet by draging the four arrows. Click and drag until the
four arrows is in the centre of your monitor and outside of the property
sheet. If the four arrows is still in the property sheet, it will not move.

To move or dock to the right or left, the four arrows must be at the edge of
your monitor.

A weird way of moving from MS.

Mike,

While the 4-Pointer cursor is showing, usually when on the Title Bar, click
the left mouse key, hold and drag.
