Forms Hidden from View

[DBFIN]

I have an extremely complex database that requires 12 forms to remain open simultaneously. A command macro successfully opens all 12 forms, but 3 of the 12 are hidden from view because the window does not have enough room to display all 12. Even when I use the left / right arrows, these 3 forms are still partially hidden.

How can I ensure that none of the tab controls are partially hidden behind other tabs ?

.... but 3 of the 12 are hidden from view because the window does not have enough room to display all 12....

The only way if the window does not have enough room to display all 12, is to choose a higher screen resolution.
Or maybe I've misunderstand the question, (then take a print screen and post it).

i think all you can do is let users resize the open forms to fit the available space they have.

maybe you could add code that when a particular form gets the focus it resizes to a larger size, and shrinks again on lost focus.

I have an app with about 5 required forms. I offer users a choice of a predefined layout, where the forms display in fixed positions within a main container form - or as a "floating layout" where users can reposition and resize forms to suit their particluar screen size and layout.
