    Post How to convert tab forms in "normal" pop-up forms ?

    Hello, every-1!!!!!!!!...



    Thanks to the help of mike60smart and others I could get the dbase I am building the way I want it. I have another issue, the current version(s) of Access works with tab forms; is there a way to convert the forms from tab to "normal" pop-up forms and create new ones this way (normal pop-up)? Thank You in advance!!!!!!.

    Change the db's settings:
    <File>
    <Options>
    <Current Database>
    Select "Overlapping Windows"

    EDIT
    The above is what I think you are asking for but a true "pop-up" form stays on top of all previously opened forms. To make a true "pop-up" form, open a form in design mode and set its Pop Up property on the "Other" tab to True.
