saving a continuous form set at a certain vertical height

P

Paul

I've got a continuous form that seems to have a mind of its own when it
comes to saving the vertical height of the form.

I drag to bottom of the form to set the vertical height so it will display a
certain number of records. After doing this, I have saved the form in both
Design View and Form View. But when I close and then reopen the form, it
keeps returning to it's original size, which I'm trying to change.

I've looked for a setting in the form Properties that looks like it sets the
size of the form, but I don't see anything that looks like it stores the
vertical height of the form.

What can I do to get this form to retain the size I want it to be?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Paul,

Is Auto Resize (located in the Form Properties set to 'No'?

You can use MoveSize Right, Down, Width, Height. For further information
check help.

I have also found that you can size the form to the size you want, change
SOMETHING on the form, ie: label size, text box size, make sure Auto Resize
is set to No and save. Reopen form and the size remains. (Found this out
by accident.)

That's what I was looking for, Gina. (I had AuoSize set to Yes).

Thanks for your help.
