Presenting forms

[bees292]

Hi

Cant find much information on this...

I have a bunch of forms now, that all link together but I only ever have one on screen at a time. What I'd like to do is find a neat way to present these on screen, i.e. center them or get them to be the same size and appear in the same position as the last one. Kind of make it look a bit more like a piece of software than a whole bunch of forms popping up in random places. I dont really want the forms to be maximised by the way.

Any suggestions, or examples of what other people do?.....

Cheers

In the form properties set
Auto Center = True
Auto Resize = False
If you make the forms all the same size then they will appear in the same place on screen for each user.

Thanks, that's useful for setting and fixing the size of each form and stopping the user from changing the size. But what if i wanted to position the forms in the top hand corner of the screen while working in other windows? Any suggestions on how you'd begin to do that? Is it possible to specify co-ordinates and then make each new window pop up in the coordinates of the last open form?

Each form has a top and a left property.
