Resizing Dialog Boxes

[S Jackson]

In my database, is there a way to stop dialog boxes from maximizing when
they are launched from the Switchboard (which I DO [and is at the time of
launch] want maximized)?

TIA

Are these really Access native dialog boxes or custom forms
that you have created? A native Access dialog box (msgbox or
inputbox) should come up partial window.

If it is your own form, my hunch is that you have created it
and saved it in a maximized window in design view. Try going
to design in a partial window sized to the size that you
would like it to be displayed, popping back and forth from
design to form view 'til you get it where you want it. Save
the form while in design view. This usually works fine.

If this doesn't work, lookup in Help the MoveSize method.
