Access 2007: How to center checkbox under label?

[Jimbo213]

I used the wizard to create a report
One field label is about 10-letters wide and the field is a checkbox

I can't figure out how to put the checkbox in the center of the field label
Access 2007 insists on justifying to the left edge of the field.

Thanks for your reply & assistance.

in design view, select all the controls and under the arrange ribbon->control
layout, select remove

that worked - thanks - but it caused me about 10 minutes of extra work to
reposition all the fields.

If you have any influence on MS then please tell them that the center-text
button should put that checkbox in the center [or left or right depending] of
the value field instead of having to monkey around with the layout > remove.

Thanks, however, for your reply & assistance.

For anyone else visiting here 4 years later...you can split the field horizontally re-position the check box to the right. That is if you are using the Tabular layout (Access 2010).

Wow. I have been troubled by this for years. Always removed the layout and manually adjusted. This is so much better. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

An even easier way, at least for me, was to highlight the checkbox field in design view, go to the "Arrange" tab and click on "Remove" next to the "Tabular" and "Stacked" icons. Then I could resize just the checkbox and move it where ever it best lined up.

I'm visiting this page 13 years later and learning this new trick. Fantastic. I had no idea.
