ACC2000: Cannot Select Multiple Controls in a Data Access Page
This article was previously published under Q200418
Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.
You cannot select more than one control at a time in Design view of a data access page.
This behavior is different from the Design view of forms and reports where you can select more than one control at a time.
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
- Open the sample database Northwind.mdb.
- On the View menu, point to Database Objects, and then click Pages.
- Open the View Products page in Design view.
- Select ProductID.
- Hold down the SHIFT key and try to click ProductName.
Note that you are not able to select ProductName while you hold down
the SHIFT key; ProductID remains selected.
- Try to drag the pointer over both ProductID and ProductName.
Note that you cannot select multiple controls by starting at any point outside a control and drag a rectangle over the controls that you want to select.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Access 2000 Standard Edition
Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
