Hi

Is it possible to get the left, top, height & width in pixels of a form when
it is running/displayed?

Thanks

Regards

Inside the form:

Me.Top
Me.Left
Me.Height
Me.Width

OR:

Forms("FormName").Top
..etc

Those values are in twips (1440ths of an inch)
to get pixels, as the OP requested, you have to convert those by
the number of pixels/inch, in both vertical and horizontal
planes because pixels are not always square.

Stephen Lebans includes some APIs and code for those conversions
in some demo database, I think the tooltips.mdb
