Phantom Form (Visible Property Set to Yes)

[Guest]

This has happened to me once before, and I don't know how I resolved it.

I have a pop-up form that was working fine and then all of a sudden it won't
show-up when it is opened programmatically. Also if I try to open it from
the database screen, it becomes highlighted with a gray background and the
tool tip at the bottom left corner says Form View. Lastly, if I click on it
as if I were going to rename it, I get an error message that the form can't
be renamed because it is open.

Perhaps it is off the screen. Try adding the following line to the Open
event procedure of the form ...

DoCmd.MoveSize 0, 0

Thanks. That worked nicely.
