Summary of right-to-left properties for controls
The feature described in this Help topic is only available if support for right-to-left languages is enabled through Microsoft Office Language Settings.
In addition, to enable the right-to-left features in Microsoft Access, you must be running a 32-bit Microsoft Windows operating system that has right-to-left support
Most intrinsic Access controls can be configured to present right-to-left appearance and behavior. In some cases, this can be done by using standard Access control properties (for example, the TextAlign property) and repositioning of controls to achieve a right-to-left appearance.
However, in some cases right-to-left properties are needed to achieve proper right-to-left appearance and behavior. The following tables lists those controls for which new right-to-left properties are added:
| Label | Text box | Toggle button | Combo box | List box | Command button | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TextAlign | X | X | X | X | ||
| ReadingOrder | X | X | X | X | X | X |
| KeyboardLanguage | X | X | ||||
