Add or remove a form header and footer or a page header and footer
- Open the form in Design view.
- Click Form Header/Footer or Page Header/Footer on the View menu.
Notes
- Form headers and footers appear at the top and bottom of a form in Form view and at the beginning and end of a printed form. Page headers and footers appear at the top and bottom of each printed page — they don't appear in Form view.
- If you remove a header and footer, Microsoft Access deletes the controls in the header and footer.
- You can only add a header and footer as a pair. If you don't want both a header and a footer, you can size the one you don't want so that it has no height, or you can set its Visible property to No. You can also set the DisplayWhen property of a form header and footer to specify when you want the header and footer to be displayed ? always, in print only, or on the screen only.
