    Center Form Vertically

    I have all my forms' Auto Center property set to yes. The forms appear in the center horizontally. However, they all move somewhat to the top of the screen. They are not vertically centered. How can I make my forms appear vertically centered. Thanks in advance.

    There are bugs on Vertical Centralizing.

    Just try the Full Windows Mode instead if this bug occurs.

    what are you talking about?? what bugs?? If there really are, please give them so we understand what you're sayin.

    injab,

    Are you sure this appearance of the "centering being off" is not caused by things like minimizing the ribbon?? For instance, if you open a form in 07 that's auto-centered, then minimize the ribbon, it moves up (I think).

    I don't know, but I do have all the menu bars and the ribbons disappear when the database opens. You think that is what is causing it? Is there any solutions to it?

    if the code that's doing this opens your form FIRST, before manipulating the ribbon and such, yes, I do think that's the problem.

    to fix, try changing the order of execution.

    When open a form in dialog mode,
    the form will move somehow upward instead of center.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
