I have several subforms on my main form. The border effect around the subform is the default sunken effect. I don't want this. I want all of my subforms to combine to look like one nice smooth form. I've managed to fix this before, but I can't remember what property had to be set.

Could someone please help me?

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
Right-click on the subform and choose Properties, change the Special Effect property to (say) flat and the Border Style to Transparent- you should also be able to do this from the formatting menu toolbar.

Ah, you know what I was doing? I was left-clicking on the little boxy thing for the userform then right clicking.

Thanks
