Form sizing works well within a database. The problem is moving from one database to the next. If the user resizes the screen in one database, then moves to another db, the form size is replicated in from the previous db to the next database that's opened.

How do I prevent this from occurring?

Are you talking about the window size the Access application is in? Do you want that set to some specific size.?

I've used the class referred to in https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/F...ing-size-of-the-access-window?forum=accessdev with good luck.

I just looked at the code in the download in http://access.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0042.htm and noticed the windows API calls don't have those ptrSafe modifications you need for the Office 64 bit edition. So if you have that you'll have to make those modifications.
