subform won't grow and shrink

[DBAchick]

W2K, Access 2000. Created 15 forms that need to be subforms on Form1. All 15 subforms have Can Grow and Can Shrink set to Yes on Property sheet within Form1. All 15 subforms are continuous forms. Objects are not overlapping on Form1.

The problem is, they don't grow and shrink! Say there are 15 reocrds in Subform1. Well, if the size of the subform only shows 4 records, then that is all I see. Shouldn't the subform 'grow' to show all 15 records? I do this with reports with no problems. Do forms behave differently? I am going crazy! Please help...anyone...what am I missing?

DBAChick,

Taken out of Access2000 help:

These properties affect the display of form sections and controls only when the form is printed or previewed, not when the form is displayed in Form view, Datasheet view, or Design view.
