Form properties window gone?

[M Skabialka]

I was making some changes to database forms, and noticed that the form
properties window was gone. It isn't hidden off screen.

None of these will restore it:
Alt Enter,
View, Properties on the tool bar,
Right click on the form and select properties, or on any control on the form

I closed and restarted Access 2003, to no avail.
I also cannot see query properties, but can see report properties. Right
click on any object in the database window also shows properties.

Where has my form properties window gone, and how do I get it back?

I found a registry hack on google posted by Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.
Perth, Western Australia.

Try resetting the location in the registry (regedit) under:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Access\Settings

Find the corresponding key FormPopPropST.


The 9.0 represents Access 2000. Your version may be different.

This worked when I changed the settings from 0;1375;405;1891;669; to
0;371;583;1016;893; which matched the Office 8.0 settings.

Thanks,
