[AccessD] Jumping Forms

Johns suggestion about toolbars may be the one... If the forms within a
certain distance of the toolbar it moves down a bit... Not sure why it
would be different in the mde unless the toolbar option are different
though

Also... Is there any code in the form that closes that may be affecting
the menu once it (the menu) gets the focus perhaps?

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
