Display Screen "Jumping"

I have a problem with my display screen jumping up and down momentarily when I moved from form to form. I do have the forms maximized. Has anyone else encountered this and can't be prevented?
 
Yes, I've experienced this. No, I've not identified a way to avoid it.
Doesn't happen all the time, but seems related to screen painting in some
way when controls are made visible/invisible when I see it.

Hum....it kind of sounds like a tool bar is appearing...and that bumps down
the screen a bit.

While viewing the screen...try right clicking on the tool bar...and hide it.

Further, if you are using windows XP, those HUGE default menu bars can often
be a source where there is no room left on the screen. You might try
changing the windows theme to something that looks pre-windows XP (ie: get
rid of those huge big blue title bars).
 
I have also had this problem

somthing that helps me, is the echo command
before you
docmd.openforms "Frm_Form"
turn echo off then - Application.Echo False
after the docmd.maximise command on the opened form
turn ecfho back on - Application.Echo True

this is not perfect but does help alot.

I also have a single customer toobar which helps as well

I was warned about error handling with the echo command
Make sure NOTHING can go wrong while echo is off because
if the program does not get to the echo on command you are buggered

hope this helps
