I would like to resize the height of a form through a piece of code. I
tried the following piece of code but got an error saying it was a read only
property and can't be set. Is there a was to resize the form at runtime?
Or is there a way to execute the command "Size to Fit Form" from the menu.
'Start of Code
Me.WindowHeight = fInchesToTwips( 2)
'End of Code
Thanks

You can use DoCmd.MoveSize for this purpose.

Justin,
Try DoCmd.MoveSize, which will allow you to control the position of
the current window. if you are executing code in a the Form_Load
event, it should work OK. I haven't tried it on a subform, so I am not
sure how that would work.
If you are distributing your application, check out some of the
discussions on sizing as it relates to screen resolution. They may be
helpful, if that is what you are doing.

this image adjusts itself when the form resizes. Sth.

It looks like when I make a Form resizable and/or hit the maximize button
that it shows garbage (unitialized memory) for the new portions of the form
and then fills it in with background color. It only shows it very briefly,
but it's VERY visible during this time.
This happens with re-sizable forms too. And it 'feels' like re-sizing is
'jerky'; that is, lags a bit from my actions. I turn off visiblity to the
controls on the form while...

Hi,
I have a form with two rich text boxes and two buttons. Some of the users want to be able to maximize and/or resize the form and have the rich text boxes resize to fit and the buttons always stay close to the right side border.
Any tips on how I could do this? Maximizing and resizing have already been enabled. The effect now is that when you resize smaller, the text boxes and buttons go out of sight (depending on which side you resize...

A lot of users at my workplace use different screen resolutions, and I build

I used to write code in Java a few years ago (2005), and you could stretch a
