Question Access 2007: Form Windows Filling Screen
Hi all,

My problem is that whenever I open certain forms (the split-form ones with the table included) in my database, the form window fills the screen.

Interestingly, the window is not maximized, it just fills the screen.

I've tried altering the 'auto-resize', 'auto-center', and 'Fit to screen' properties to no avail. I've also tried just dragging the edges of the form and the form's window in 'design view'. Also, in layout view, the form and window look exactly as they should. I've also tried code to programmatically resize the form in the on-load event procedure, but it doesn't seem to take effect.

If I open the form in layout view and switch over to form view, the window is sized right, but if I open the form in form view, it fills the screen.

I can't seem to find an answer to this problem; I'd love to hear what you've got to say.

Can you convert it to Access 2003?

Unfortunately...
No, Access tells me that certain features on my database can't be converted to the old edition...

I'm not sure which ones.
