Suggestions for improving Access:
1. Since most activity is conducted along the left side (in English), have
all vertical scroll bars at the left of the screen;
2. Since most activity is conducted along the top side (in English), have
all horizontal scroll bars at the top of the screen;
3. When placing fields on a form, auto-format label Right, justified right,
and sized to fit label text length, so that label is snug up against field
and not overlapping it—move placed fields automatically as required away from
the edges to make this so;
4. Auto-name labels to be “Label†followed by not a number but the name of
the field (followed by a number if it needs to be unique).
