Hi,

I am having a perception problem with Access 2000. It seems to me that, if my code changes some of a form's properties and I end the program without changing them back, I lose the form's initial properties. When I restart the form, the initial properies are not what I started with. This is very disheartening.

Is this my imagination or is there anyone else having the same problem? I never seem to have this problem when I am using Access 97. If there is a problem, how can I change my approach to automatically handle it?

I've had the same experience. What I did was to create an OnClose event to "reset" all my stuff back the way I wanted it. There may be another solution.

Also, I gather the method of "tagging" controls can save alot of coding. Personally, I haven't tried it, but if you have many things needing changed you might look into that.

HTH

PS. I don't think I really used Access97. Was still toying then.
