Access Forms

hi guys (and girls),

Does anyone know how, and indeed if possible to save a forms positions when
closed. I have a small Access application and find it annoying having to
move the forms into the right positions on the screen, only to have to do it
again when the form is reloaded. Is there anyway to save the position of the
form so that it opens in the same location the next time, maybe by storing
the position references anywhere.

Many thanks for any help given.....

Regards

Place it where you want it - Go to design view - Save - It will then show in
that position next time.
(At least that works for me with Access2002

Thanks for the response Chris, I should have worded my question a bit
better. I would like a way of doing this by code at runtime.
