Hey Smig, that looks really cool. A few observations . . .

If there is no AppTitle property set, an error occurs that is not handled. This line . . .

Code:Copy to clipboard

        hwnd = FindWindow(vbNullString, CurrentDb.Properties("AppTitle"))

. . . in mdl_Fuchs_CenterFormOnScreen.WindowSize.

One thing you can do to center a form more simply, is
1) set auto center on in design mode
2) check and store the size on open,
3) do your resize,
4) use Me.Move to move the form 1/2 the distance of the amount of your resize.

I would write code with more sub routines, notably your Fuchs_MsgBox.Open() routine. You do multiple tasks, and your code would be far easier to understand if each task was a clearly named Sub.

But nice work, very simple and clean look.

Markk, Thank you for your comments.

I found no other way to center other then that.
I 'll try to search for 'ms access ' first.
Another simple option is to set a title if it has not.

I mostly come here and look for stuff that hasn't been answered. Any thread with you, Dave, JHB, and Frothingslosh is a thread that is under control, IMO!

While I appreciate being grouped in with them, I think we all know I'm not in everyone else's league yet!
