odd window alignment


dear all,

After a recent edit, one of my forms that has been in use for years, has
suddenly started to be shifted to the left, so that it is no longer
in full view in the window. It's moved by about 10mm or so. If I go into
design view, then back into form view it appears correctly.
When I added another line to the code, it seemed to shift a bit more.
Does the same when used on another PC.

Any ideas?

Is there any code that is positioning the form window? In the form's
properties is Auto Center (format tab) set to Yes? If you import everything
into a new mdb file, does the problem continue?

Thank you, it was the auto resize!
No idea why it suddenly started to have an effect.
It's back to what it should be doing.
