This may seem like a daft question but I would like help in sprucing up the look of a form. How do I send an object to the back? eg. If I want to have a box around some fields, I have to make it transparent or it will block out everything underneath. Because of this I've only got a back colour and some boring raised boxes! Any suggestions appreciated. While in design-view, you can highlight a control and then select the Format menu. The last two options on that menu are "send to front" and "send to back".

That's where I thought it would be. I'm using Access 2000, if that makes any difference?! Any ideas? > While in design-view, you can highlight a control and then select the Format > menu.
