Create an unbound scrolling text control on a data access page
- Open a data access page in Design view.
- Click the Scrolling Text tool in the toolbox.
- In the data access page, click where you want the upper-left corner of the scrolling text control to be; Microsoft Access creates a default-sized control. To create a scrolling text control of a particular size, click in the data access page and then drag until the control is the size you want.
- Select the default text in the scrolling text control, and then type the message you want to appear.
