OK, Last Clue - I put the mde on my test bed and ran it in 2010 - no jumping; I ran it in 2007 - no jumping; I ran it in 2003 - JUMPING!!! Something to do with 2003 apparently even though the mdb was developed and is maintained in 2003 and compiled to the mde in 2003. Could it be just my install?

SO it may not be related just to the mdb but the mde may be exaggerating the effect.

I had this problem with another application years ago and got a fix from A.D. but that doesn't seem to work on this app. In each form I do the form resizing from the ADH and call the routines to translate the form into a different language. Suspecting these might be the problem, I commented out all calls to those routines. No difference. I also close each form that calls another form so that only one form is open at a time. I commented out those closes. And the jumping went away. I originally put those closes in there to keep the users from using the open windows for navigating but I turn off the menu bar with the windows list box, and turn off the windows in the taskbar if it's the mde. Is there some limit or downside to having a lot of windows open at once? There are about 150 forms in this app. MTIA Rocky Smolin Beach Access Software 858-259-4334 www.bchacc.com <http://www.bchacc.com/> www.e-z-mrp.com <http://www.e-z-mrp.com/> Skype: rocky.smolin -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
