The three main views in which a form can be displayed are:

                 •  Form View is used to enter, edit and view data.
                 •  Design View is used to adjust the design of your form. It gives you a

                   more detailed view of the structure of a form such as Header, Detail
                   and Footer sections.

                 •  Layout  View is used to change the appearance and size of various

                   controls of a form. When you create a form, by default it appears in
                   the Layout view.
