Why am I losing vertical slider on a form I open as a dialog?

I need to open a form as a modal dialog so im using the following code:

DoCmd.OpenForm "Ducali_DataEntry", acNormal, , , , acDialog

However when I do this the form no longer has the vertical slider which I
have to have. If I remove the acDialog attribute the form no longer opens
modally and the code doesnt pause. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Normal behavior. Workaround is to put a subform on the form, and use the
subform to show the data; the subform will show its vertical scrollbar if
enabled.
