    Form Borders

    Greetings!
    I've got a few forms which appear as popup boxes; attached is the design view for one.

    The issue is that when I open it in form view, borders appear.

    Is there any way to get rid of them?
    Here's a screenshot of the form properties

    YASSSS I LOVE LIDO.
    XD


    That's almost perfect - is there no way to disable the status bar? How do I go about replicating that?


    Lido. God, I havn't played that in ages. I am definitely buying a board. Lido is literally my childhood you've actually made me get emotional here XD

    If I didn't want a Border, on a Form, I'd probably set the Border Style Property to None.

    As for the Status Bar:

    Code:
    Private Sub Form_Load()
     SetOption "Show Status Bar", False
    End Sub

    Linq ;0)>

    Ouch, snarky XD
    For some reason, whenever I do that, Access gets massively glitchy :'( It doesn't let me move or touch anything. I have to go to the process to end it.

    So does this work for others (i.e. is my MS just being glitchy?) Also note that the bordery-things I'm worried about (they're not actually borders methinks) are still there

    Absolutely no reason, whatsoever, that setting that setting Border Style to None should not let you 'move or touch anything,' whatever that means. Unless you've also done something else, you may have to consider corruption.

    As to the 'border,' is it possible that this is either a part of the library image, itself, or part of the control that holds the image?
