    Cool Resizing forms


    How can I make sure that forms I create will show in their entirety on whatever computer is being used? Is there a property or something that I can change? When I create an application the forms look great on my computer, however, they are too large on other computers.

    There's no automatic resizing of forms.

    You have to cycle through the forms container for the subject form changing the widht and heign of each control as required. This is not for the timid.

    Litwin & Gewtz' Access 2000 (or 2002) Developer's Handbook has the code and a good exp0lanation for same.

    Access Help "resize form controls" will introduce you to the complexity of resizing.

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