Form Height

[Max]

Access 2007. Have designed a form: Pop & Modal = YES, Continuous Forms,
Dialog border style, Auto Center NO, Auto Resize YES, Detail Can Grow & Can
Shrink = YES. Want to open it with a command button on another form, using
docmd.openform "My Form",,,,, acDialog.

Can't seem to get MyForm to open with the height and location on the screen
of my choosing. It is always too high and I can't seem to set it to what I
want.

This was MUCH EASIER in Access 2003!!!!

Thanks in advance.

In the new form's Open event, are you telling it what size? Are you trying
to open it maximized?

NO, I have no action for the form's On Open event. I do not have anywhere
that I tell it to be maximized and in fact it is not maximized when it opens.
Still I am not able to size it to what I want. How can I size it? Why is this
so difficult in Access 07?
Thanks....

A quick search at Google.com revealed several potential solutions.

One of the more promising mentioned running Access 2007 on a database that
was still in Access 2003 format.

Have you converted your application to Access 2007 format (.accdb)?

Dialog border style is not sizable (never has been).
