Disappearing form due to Hide Access Window macro?

I found code on this site that hides the Access Window and only displays my forms if there Pop Up property is set to Yes.

However, I have occasionally noticed that the forms won't always open properly. When I unhide the Access Window and go into design view of the form the form area is always decreased to near nothing and always pops up in the upper left part of the screen. This was an occasional nuisance but bearable because it only seemed to happen when the screen resolution changed. Once the forms were reset to normal size, they were fine for that screen resolution.

Now I have code that opens several of the forms in Design view (hidden) and sets the DefaultValue of several fields. But this always seems to create that same form size problem and DoCmd.Restore (in the form's Open event) doesn't seem to help.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Vince
