[AccessD] FMD Screen Resizer

[Jim Lawrence]

Maybe the failure is less on Access and FMD code and something to do with the underlying software. Have you tested this situation on other applications?

...or <Alt-Enter> or F11?

Oh, it fails on very hi-res screens.  Like a 36"

 I meant the ADH code.

Well I was using 2010 when I tried it out for them.  The code is open but
tracing the problem was going to be a lot of work and there was no money in
it for me to do that.  But he should have responded with a solution but he
didn't.  One of my clients send him a nice email asking if he would take a
look at the database but Peters never responded.

O I really don't know why it'[s failing.

 I'm curious where the code falls flat with A2013 and 2016.

 Also, in regards to resizing, many don't look at the features that are now
built-in.    Mostly that deals with anchoring, but many overlook these
settings.

Dear Lists:

 

I have two former clients who are finding that the old ADH Form Resizer code
is not doing the job as Access advances into 2013 and 2016. I tried to
evaluate Peters Shrinker/Stretcher and it failed on both applications.  I
tried to get support from Peters but failed.  One of my clients wrote to
Peters asking for help and offering to send their application to Peters.
After 2 weeks+, he has not received a reply from Peters.

 

I told him his next move would be to evaluate the screen resizing features
of FMS' Total Access Components 2010.  And he should check out the free demo
which will probably not have enough capability to prove that it will work
with his app. But then he might write them a letter telling them that he got
burned by Peters and so is a bit gun shy about spending $200 for something
that may or may not work.

 

Meantime I said I would write my forums (fora?) to see if anyone has had
experience with Total Access Components. 

 

Please let me know if you have used the form resizer and what your
experience was.

 

MTIA
