I am updating an old Access app. The first form, FORM_A, of the app displays in maximized window - as I want them all to display. I click on a button to open a new form, FORM_B, and do whatever I need to on that form, close that window to return to the first window, FORM_A. When I do, FORM_A is now displaying much smaller.

FORM_A's Has Modal property is =Yes.

When I try to change the "Has Modal" property to NO, it alerts me that all the module and macro code will be deleted - and it is. I made a copy before continuing so I still have a copy of it.

I have the OnLoad event set to a macro that short maximizes the window. I use the same macro for the On Focus event, but it does not change the display on focus.

I've tried changing it to Has Modal = No, then copying the old code back into the blank module for that form - doesn't change the display of FORM_A.

Any ideas? Thanks.
 
I think it will be a combination of the Pop-Up and Modal properties. Check out Help and these settings on FormA and FormB.
