Forms Shrinking in Strange Ways

[Hmadyson]

I have a form that uses a header and detail section. It is pretty big and sometimes needs to shrink to fit in the area. Strangely enough it moves the top of the detail section out of view instead of shrinking from the bottom. How can I get this to stop?

I am using Access XP.

maximize the form instead of 'trying to get it to fit'.

I do not want the forms maximized, since there are many forms open at once that people will be going between. I just want the form to shrink from the bottom instead of the top of the detail, since it is hard to get back.

I am thinking that this may have something to do with the first field on Tab Stop wanting to be higher on the form.

Thanks for your help.

Good point. Give the focus to a control higher up on the form.
