Scroll bars, memo type

[Chris]

My memo field type is on a subform, on a tab page on the main form.

The physical viewing size of the form's control is about 100 characters;
there are more than double that in the record.

Scroll bars on the form's subform control (memo type) is set to vertical.

Scroll bars do not appear at all, even when an overflow exists. (as above)
but with the cursor in the memo field I can down arrow to the bottom.

Problem is....user may not know the rest is there.....need the scroll bar to
work.

Can anyone shed light on this issue...there is nothing here that solves it
.... yet. I have confidence.

Sounds like an Access question that should be asked in an Access newsgroup
- FrontPage and web based forms don't use subforms

Is this a web page or an Access form? Web pages do not generally have
subforms - a link to the page will help.

If an Access database, then posting in an Access newsgroup or forum will
get a better answer than here in FrontPage.
