Hi, When I used to code in VB6, I believe I recall being able to set a form to any dimensions I wanted, and could drag controls out of the working area (pluses and minuses of this) - apparently I cannot do this with Access 2003 forms? Why I want to: I build datasheet forms, drag fields onto the form... then find I have to grab each one and reposition it manually. For a datasheet form I don't really care what order the controls are in, but I would like to see them all grouped in one place. I built a subroutine which repositioned my controls on a form which I open hidden. I would now like to change the form's height and width to just accommodate those controls and no more. But the only property I seem able to manipulate is InsideHeight, which does not seem to work if the form is not in a window. Any other properties I can manipulate to accomplish this -- or anything I can do with container/document objects? Thanks
