I've also never specified form size by anything other than moving borders in design view. So I could use docmd.movesize to control every form. Anyone have any suggestions for embedding the form size in the design of the form rather than in code? I would like to have two text boxes - one for height and one for width. Then feed the text values to movesize when the form opens. Does that make sense? See any problems with it? Having never used movesize or any resizing code...would the two be compatible?

There has never been any resizing code used. Never even tried it. I've wondered if it would work here. However, if the form can't even keep it's default size could resizing code help.

A2K. Windows 7, but I do all the A2K work in Win XP (Win XP mode on the Win 7 machine). I open and look at every form and the sizes are perfect. In design view there is no extra room around the control unless I want it so. The form edges are exactly where I want them. However, the forms are being shrunk to where only 1/3 to 1/2 is visible. It is almost always shrunk horizontally (in fact I think it is always horizontally). Not all forms - only 9 out of about 115 forms are doing this. Any thoughts? (maximizing all forms does correct it, but not really an option as my clients (as well as myself) hate maximized forms) Thank you.
