INF: BorderWidth Not Supported with Raised or Sunken Effects
'Article ID: Q90156

Creation Date: 11-OCT-1992

Revision Date: 30-NOV-1996' The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Access versions 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 7.0, 97

SUMMARY

Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.

The BorderWidth property settings are not applicable to controls that have their SpecialEffect property set to Raised or Sunken. However, you can effectively mimic the raised or sunken effects by using the line control properties.

MORE INFORMATION

To use the BorderWidth property with Microsoft Access 7.0 and Microsoft Access 97, the SpecialEffect property must be set to Flat or Shadowed and the BorderStyle property must not be set to Transparent.

In Microsoft Access 2.0 and earlier, setting the BorderWidth property in the palette screen will not have any effect on a control if the raised or sunken effects are enabled.

To work around this behavior, you can enable these properties for the control(s) in question and then, using the line control properties, create your own sunken or raised effect. You can set the width of the line to whatever you want. The sunken and or raised effect is accomplished by placing lines around a standard control.
