Positioning Find and Replace Dialog Box on a Form

I have a form that I've added a "Find Record" button to. When the
button is clicked, I do a
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdReplace
to get the standard Find and Replace dialog box to appear.
Is there a simple way I can position the box so that it comes up in
the bottom right hand corner of my form every time?
Thanks

Hi
Not easily I believe. Years ago code was posted for positioning
messageboxes which involved a timer and scanning window titles - ie
only an API fanatic would consider it.
