SQL window in Access

Post by silverback »

The photo is of Access showing SQL as part of query design.
The Access page is huge, but the SQL is tucked away in the top left corner in very small and light coloured text .
Both me and SWMBO are getting on a bit, and we can't read this; we have to copy it and paste it into a Word doc so we can read/manipulate it and then paste it back into Access.
Is there a way to increase the text size for SQL display, please?
Thanks

Select File > Options.
Select Object Designers.
Under 'Query design', you can specify the font and font size.
Click OK when you have made changes.
Best wishes,
Hans
