Access 2007's new Layout view allows you quickly add finishing touches to the design of your form.

- In the Navigation pane, double-click the form you want to change.
- On the Home tab, click the View icon and select Layout View.

- If you wish to change the default title, click and drag the text in the text box and type the new title.
- In the Controls group, click the Date & Time icon to add a date and time control to the form header.
You could easily add a missing State field to the form by following the steps below:
