Resize forms not working (1 Viewer)

[ANE002]

I have 3 forms that pop up in split form view and all have the same issue - they auto resize when they open when i dont want them to. I have a menu with command buttons to open each of the forms. When i click the cmdbt to open the form they all open in different positions and different sizes on the screen. If i manually resize the window, reposition it to where i want it to open, save/close/reopen, it resizes and moves locations.

these are some of my property settings (they are identical for all 3 forms yet they all open in different positions and sizes). What are some other things I can check to make them open with the same size and location that i choose each time?

border size: sizable
default view: split form
modal: no
moveable: yes
navigation buttons: yes
pop up: yes
split form datasheet: allow edits
split form orientation: datasheet on bottom
width:7"

AutoResize and AutoCentre are two I would look at?

You can force a form to a specific position using the Form.Move VBA command

 

[arnelgp]

you can add code when the form Opens
you supply the values on the square brackets.

private sub form_open(cancel as integer)
    docmd.movesize [right],[down], [width], [height]
end sub

this worked perfectly. Thank you
