[AccessD] Resizing of forms to suit screen resolution in force

Rocky,

    The problem of jumping forms encountered by you seems to be arising out of run time manipulation of tool bars (depending upon mdb or mde format).

    If you eliminate all such code and make the mde file only from a version of mdb file that has only those tool bars as are required for mde version, the problem should stand resolved.

Best wishes,
A.D. Tejpal

  A.D.:

  I tried your resizing routine this morning, and sorry to say it did not fix
  the flashing problem.  But, I now think that my original assumption was
  wrong - it does not have to do with the resizing  because I commented out
  the call to the resizing module in a form that jumps consistently on opening
  and it still jumped.  So there's something else going on there that I can't
  figure out.  

  This only happens with the mde, not the mdb, BTW.

  So I commented out ALL the code in one of the jumping forms in the _Open and
  Current events of both the main form and sub-form on the theory that there
  was something in there that caused the jump.  Still jumped. 

  So I copied the mdb to machine #2, fired it up in A2007, created and mde in
  A2007- no jumping.  

  So then I copied over the mde that had been created in A2003.  No jumping.

  So apparently it has to do with running the mde in A2003. 

  Could it be the installation on A2003 on my primary machine?  I copied the
  mde created in A2003 to my laptop and ran it in A2003.  Jumps. 

  Last test - copied mde created on machine #1 in A2003 to machine 2 where I
  tested the mde in A2007 but also have A2003.  On that machine in A2003 the
  forms jumps on opening whether screen resizing is used or not.

  So it's still a mystery but I've eliminated a few possibilities.
