Form Design Problem Access2007

J

Joseph Macari

I am having a very weird problem with Access2007. It's only happening with
one file-all other files are fine. Every time I design a form (either
wizard, blank, etc) the form opens fully maximized and I don't have the
ability to resize it. I've tried everything....I opened two instances of
access2007 and compared all options between this one weird file and the
others and set up the options the same. I imported a resizable form from
one file to this one and it would open fully maximized and can't be
resized.....Anybody got any ideas? This is really the first snafu I've come
across with Access2007....I still got Access2003 on another box just in
case...

Found my problem...Access Options-Document Windows Options-Tabbed
Documents....I had to change to Overlapping Windows Options; all is well.
Its too bad, I like the tabbed documents, but I need a a smaller popup type
form for my project. I will have to resort to other ways to get the tabbed
document style.

Joe, what happens if you set the form's Popup property to Yes, while used
tabbed documents?

Thanks for replying, Allen.

Right after I uploaded my last message, I realized that I could just set my
command button code (which the code wizard turns into an embedded
macro(?)..still getting used to A2007!!) to Dialog Mode, and then
everythings good while using tabbed documents.
Thanks again.
