Form Window

[Pietro]

Hi,
I've a very big problem using Access 2007:
All continous forms' windows always open with the size of one record,and
users have to scroll down and up the scroll bars to see recods one by one.
To solve this problem i have to input maximize command in each form,but
actually some forms look better if they are not maximized as they contain
fiew fields,or i have to choose sizable border style so that users may be
able to resize the small windows,but actually i don't like sizable borders.
I tried many times to set the "Resize" property to yes or to no,but no use...
I'm facing this problem with Access 2007 only
Do we have a solution?

In design view, resize the form to the size desired and save. It should then
open at that size.

Unfortunately I've done this soooooooo many times with no solutions...

Hi all;
I think I am having a similar problem; at least on controlling the size of
some forms on open.

There are a number of forms in my database that open in a size that I can't
seem to control, while some with all of the same Property settings are as
expected. All of the affected forms are "Split" form type.

The issue is that some forms open in a size about twice as wide as my
screen. I can drag their size back into full view, and save them (ctrl S);
but on reopen they revert back to some "uncontrolled" dimension.

All of the affected forms are set for Dialog, thin or resizeable border, and
no combination of any Property seems to make a difference on the outcome;
other than to set the Settings in design view don't seem to have any bearing
on the outcome, other than to set the Default to Single Form.

I've tried the form OnLoad event docmd.Restore; no change.
I can set the form OnLoad event to docmd.Maximize, but that isn't desireable
for my application.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
