sizing form into screen

[Michell Vandell]

hi,

is there an easy way to have a form adjust itself to the screensize it is
shown on? or can you set any setting to achieve this? Access help doesn't
give any answers.

There's sample code to do this in Access Developer's xx Handbook by Litwin,
Getz and Gilbert et al (where xx is whatever's appropriate for the version
of Access you're using). You can learn more about their books at
http://www.developershandbook.com/

They've also produced an MDE version of the code that you can download from
http://www.developershandbook.com/downloads.htm and use in your application.

Another option is to purchase ShrinkerStretch from Peter De Baets

There's also code at http://jamiessoftware.tk/resizeform/rf_download.html
but I don't really know anything about it.
