How do you code a form so it will center and fill the screeen independent of the individual computer resolution settings?
P Peter De Baets Jul 30, 2003 #3 Gerald, You can set the form AutoCenter property to True in order to center the form on the screen. As far as filling the screen goes, there are third-party form scaling solutions available that might help: A shareware version of a form rescaling module I wrote called ShrinkerStretcher is available at this web site: http://www.peterssoftware.com/ss2.htm FMS has a sizer module at www.fmsinc.com. The Access Developer's Handbook has form resizing code included: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0782119417/107-8064361-7403703 For more informmation, there are some great articles about form scaling in the December 2000, and May 2001 SmartAccess newsletter.
