This is going to sound strange but I need some help working out a solution for a customer that wants to run two access applications on a single computer with dual monitors. One application running in each of the monitors. The problems comes when you remove the keyboard and mouse and make the monitors touch screens.
If this computer looses power, I've tweakUI'd it to restart and launch the access applications again.
BUT, when the applications launch they both go to primary display. I need to move one to the secondary display.
I've tried the "DoCMD.movesize" but that will only allow me to move the form within the application framework, I can not seem to move the framework.

Can some one please throw me an idea or two.

Thanks inadvance,
Alabaster
 
This is a function of the video driver(s), not Access.

In Desktop Properties: Settings: Advanced you may find ways to specify that a particular application be opened to a particular monitor. Also, there may be a video utility that would allow you to set such properties. "The Key, The Whole Key, and Nothing But The Key, So Help Me Codd!"
