ACC: Form Size Changes Not Retained

RESOLUTION

There are several methods of changing a form's size, including the following:

• Set the form's AutoResize property to No. This will cause the Form window to open to the size you set it to, rather than snapping to the size of the form contained within it.
• Set the form's Width property to the width that you want.
• Set the form section's Height property to the height that you want for that section.
• Use the mouse to drag the right side of the form to make the form the width that you want.
• Use the mouse to drag the bottom of the form or section to make the form or section the height that you want.

Note that you cannot size the width of the form narrower than the reach of the rightmost control on the form. You cannot size the height of a section shorter than the reach of the last control in the section.

NOTE: If you view the form in Form view directly from Design view, the Form window will remain the same size it was in Design view. You can force the Form window to snap to the size of the form by clicking Size To Fit Form on the Window menu when you are viewing the form in Form view.

If you open the form in Form view from the Database window, the Form window will snap to the size of the form automatically.
