SUMMARY
Microsoft Access 2000 has a feature called morphing. This feature enables you to change one type of control into another type of control. However, there are limits to which types of controls you can morph. For example, you cannot morph an image control into a text box control. The table below lists each type of control and what type you can morph it into.
