Switch between forms

[Guest]

Hi. I have a form (frm_1) which allows me to open another one (frm_2).
The first one (frm_1) is maximized and I want the second one (frm_2) to be
with its original size (I did the «code DoCmd.Restore» on Open).
However, every time I open the frm_2, the frm_1 (stays behind) restores its
original size too. How can I avoid this?
Thanks in advance.

Try making form 2 a popup. It will stay the size you make it.

Hello, Arvin. Thank you for your quick answer.
I just tried that procedure and it worked just like I wanted.
However, I notice that with popup turned on, frm_2 attached toolbar became
inactive.
Is it normal? How can I avoid it?
Thank you.

Did you make the popup modal as well? Just make it a popup, not modal, and
see if that helps.

Hello again, Arvin.
Sorry, but the toolbar is still inactive, with this form propertys: popup:
yes, modal: no. Can I do anything else?
Thank you.
Regards.

Hi -

If the toolbar for frm_2 is a custom toolbar, you can make it a shortcut
menu instead of a toolbar. It activates with Right-click in the form.
