Navigation Form cut off in Form View

[MichaelA]

I have a navigation form that looks fine in design and layout view. When I open it up in form view the left side is cut off. I can't see all of the vertical navigation buttons. If I maximize it, the problem is corrected but with a large amount of empty space on the right. When I restore it down the left looks fine but the right side is now cut off?



Thanks in advance.

My first thought is that some control to the right gets focus first, forcing the form to show the right side. Make sure there isn't an old control on the right side. I always size my forms so the entire form fits on the screen without any need to scroll.

I found the culprit. I had this little snippet.

Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.Move Left:=0, Top:=-2500, Width:=15200, Height:=11050
Me.Moveable = True
End Sub

I changed the width value and it's good now.

Suggest you also test on a different size/resolution monitor
