Using VBA, is there a command for locating a form upon opening in a specific
location with a specific width and height? Or other properties for that
matter.

In Access 2007 my forms won't hold height/width even ensuring overlapping
windows not tabbed. I cannot seem to size them and then "lock" them as thin,
dialog, or none as in other versions. What to do?

I cannot locate anything in help or on this site. Am I just not seeing it?

Thanks for your help,
Chris

Not much if anything has changed in this area. E.g.
Me.Move 200, 300
positions the window at that offset.

Thanks, Tom.

That I can do, but I am really concerned about the height and width not
holding.

Is there a command for that too?

Doesn't Move take two additional optional arguments, just for that
purpose?

Thanks. Tom.

I never knew h/w was part of that and frankly I never thought to look. I
knew it had to be simple though.

I do appreciate your help.
