Hi

I have a little Acces-DB to add Customers. I have to Forms which communicate. Now I want to "link" the smaller one to the bigger one: If I move the bigger, the smaller sould also move (like the forms of Winamp).

Does anyone has an idea? I do not find any x/y Coordinates and parameters with height and width.

Please help!
 
Very complicated to do. There is a form positioning class module in the Sybex bible, Access Developer's Handbook v. 1. -- Herb
 
Just a thought, anyway to make one of the forms a subform?
 
The subform idea sounds like a good one. Could have subform invisible (or even not loaded into subform control at all) and main form sized to be smaller when small form not in use. When in use, just show the subform (and dynamically load it into subform control, if you take that route) and issue commands to change width of main form. -- Herb
