Is there a way to force form centering

[Louis Herndon]

Hello,

I am working on a database, the most complex I have done
so far. Along with functionality I am also working on
making it visually attractive with few flaws. It boots to
a splash screen with company disclaimer, times out to a
login screen and from there on the main switchboard. All
of the forms on open close the preceding form and
aesthetically I want everything to be centered. I want to
know if there is a way to force forms to be centered
within the open Access screen. I know I can move them
myself and then make them nonmovable, but in the interest
of curiosity... can Access center them for me? Any help
would be appreciated.

All forms have a property call AutoCenter. Just set it to Yes.

Does Auto Center on the Format tab of the Form's Properties sheet do what
you want?

Duh!

Thanks Rick, I missed that one.
