Resizing Forms 2

[JayKappy]

I have a form that I am using to input data.
I also have a button on that form that opens another form.

Issues:
1. I maximize the Main Form. I want this maximized to increase the real estate (Space)of the form
2. When I click the button to open the second form it also opens maximized.

Settings on Second Form:
1. Auto Resize = NO
2. AutoRecenter = Yes
3. Modal = Yes
4. Border Style = Thin.

How do I keep the Main Form maximized and then force the second adn third Form to open at a specific location and a specific size?

PLEASE HELP

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOU SUPPORT....VERY APPRECIATED....






My problem is when I maximize the main form and then click the button which open the second form it opens maximized. The Autosize does not seem to be turned off.

This oonly happens when I have the main form maximized.

Is there another setting I can set so the second form opens in the middle and keeps its size?

Thanks

This is standard behaviour for MDI windows.
You may try to make the 2nd form popup and modal.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Set the 2nd form 'Popup' property to yes.
