Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers. SYMPTOMSIf you change the size of a form in Design view, and then save and close the form, when you open the form from the Database window, the size of the form will not reflect the changes that you made. CAUSEYou sized the window that contains the form, not the form itself. A form has its own dimensions, independent of the size of the window that the form is displayed in. This way, the form can be printed correctly, no matter what size the window is. RESOLUTIONThere are several methods for changing a form's size, including the following:
NOTE: If you view the form in Form view directly from Design view, the Form window will remain the same size it was in Design view. You can force the Form window to snap to the size of the form by clicking Size To Fit Form on the Window menu when you are viewing the form in Form view. If you open the form in Form view from the Database window, the Form window will snap to the size of the form automatically. MORE INFORMATIONSteps to Reproduce Behavior
