The Section property is read-only in all views.
For forms and reports, the Section property is an array of all existing sections in the form or report specified by the section number. For example, Section(0) refers to a form’s detail section and Section(3) refers to a form’s header section.
You can also refer to a section by name. The following statements refer to the Detail0 section for the Customers form and are equivalent.
Forms![Customers].Section(0).Visible![Customers].Detail0.Visible
For forms and reports, you must combine the Section property with other properties that apply to form or report sections. The following example shows how to refer to the Visible property of the page header section of the Customers form.
Forms![Customers].Section(3).Visible
For controls, you can use the Section property to determine which section of a form or report a control is on. The following example uses the Section property to determine which section contains the CustomerID control.
Dim intSectionNumber As Integer= Forms![Customers]![CustomerID].Section
