Access 2003, subform sizing

Dave Hubb

Hi all, I'm designing a database for my coin collection. I've begun to use a
switchboard form as the main screen. The top button opens another swithboard
form. In this one I want to have six seperate btns which would open up a
sbfrm filtering out countries from each continent. I'm having trouble making
this sbfrm be opened up having the same size and location on the screen.
It'll work once, then move itself around the screen.

Any thoughts forcing the sbfrm's size would be appreciated.

Thanks

The term sub form usually refers to a form that is placed inside of another
form.

(just giving you a head ups here...as I don't think you are actually using a
sub-form here...but please feel free to correct me if you are in fact using
a sub-form)

When the form is in design mode, in the properties sheet (format tab),

check the "Auto Center" (set this to yes), and set the "Auto Resize" to
"no". This should fix the forms size and position for you.
