[AccessD] Jumping Forms

Is it caused by toolbars?  Often if one form has a tool bar and another
doesn't, then you get jumping (up and down) as the toolbars are added /
removed.

Mark;

I took all of the code out of one of the menus except for the .close and a
.OpenForm to another form.  When I return to that menu from the form I get
the 'jump'.  So it appears that it's not due to any code.

Another clue: It doesn't happen in the MDB, only in the MDE.

Any other ideas?

TIA
