popup form co ordinates

[NigelShaw]

Hi,

can anyone help me with form positioning? I need to find the Left & the top of a popup form based on the desktop not the access window. So, if the popup form was say 1 inch in from the top & left of the desktop and the access window was on my other monitor, i would get the position relative to the desktop.

does that make sense?


hope you can help,



thanks

Nidge

Hi,

to try and explain further, i made an image to visually explain. I need to get this reference point Left & Top. Can anyone advise? I am currently using the GetWindowPlacement function but it isnt working right.


thanks

Nigel
