Keeping forms constant in Microsoft Access ..... HELP!

[c0ok]

Hey all,

Im looking for a way to disable the users ability to resize forms when in form view. In changing the switchboards borderstyle property to thin it works for the switchboard, however I cant figure out how to accomplish the same for the forms. Can someone please help me? I have been struggling for sometime with this problem and I cant seem to find a solution. Also I have looked into using Windows API however I am not to sure how to go about using it or whether or not it will work.

I really appreciate any help I can get, even if its a step in the right direction

Thanks

PLease refer to following article from MDSN:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q210299

The problem is that you can hide close and min/max button by setting the according form properties, but that the close and restore button still appear when you maximize the window.

THe trick is to set
CloseBUtton=no
MInmaxbutton=no
BOrderstyle= thin

and then display the form in its non-maximized form, but large enough to fill the whole screen.

Good luck!
