Discussion

You can delete controls from Design view. When you delete a bound control, you do not delete the field in the table or the data it contains; rather, you keep the data from being displayed in the form or report.

NOTE Click the Undo button on the Quick Access Toolbar to restore a control you have just deleted. However, you cannot restore a deleted control after you have saved the form or report design.
