expression.Height
expression Required. An expression that returns one of the above objects.
 Remarks
The Height property applies only to form sections and report sections, not to forms and reports.
Enter a number for the desired height in the current unit of measurement. To use a unit of measurement different from the setting in the Regional Options dialog box in Windows Control Panel, specify the unit, such as cm or in (for example, 5 cm or 3 in).
You can set this property by using the object's property sheet, a macro, or Visual Basic.
For controls, you can set the default for this property by using the default control style or the DefaultControl method in Visual Basic.
In Visual Basic, use a numeric expression to set the value of this property. Values are expressed in twips.
For report sections, you can't use a macro or Visual Basic to set the Height property when you print or preview a report. For report controls, you can set the Height property when you print or preview a report only by using a macro or an event procedure specified in a section's OnFormat event property setting.
You can't set this propery for an object once the print process has started. For example, attempting to set the Height property in a report's Print event generates an error.
Microsoft Access automatically sets the Height property when you create or size a control or when you size a window in form Design View or report Design view.
The height of sections is measured from the inside of their borders. The height of controls is measured from the center of their borders so controls with different border widths align correctly. The margins for forms and reports are set in the Page Setup dialog box, available by clicking Page Setup on the File menu.
Note To set the left and top location of an object, use the Left and Top properties.
Example
The following code resizes a command button to a 1-inch by 1-inch square button (the default unit of measurement in Visual Basic is twips; 1440 twips equals one inch):
Me!cmdSizeButton.Height = 1440 ' 1440 twips = 1 inch.
Me!cmdSizeButton.Width = 1440
