The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Access version 7.0

SUMMARY

Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.

The second note in the "BorderLineStyle Property" Help topic states the following:

   Note: The BorderLineStyle property isn't the same as the BorderStyle
   property, which determines whether a control's border is transparent or
   visible.

This information is not entirely true.

MORE INFORMATION

In earlier versions of Microsoft Access, the BorderLineStyle property determined the line style of a control's border. The BorderStyle property determined whether a control's border was transparent or visible. In Microsoft Access for Windows 95, the functionality of these two properties was combined into one property, BorderStyle. As a result, you can use either BorderLineStyle or BorderStyle to set the line style of a control.
