Problems with Send to Back & Bring to Front

Hai all,

Can somebody give me some solution to handle this scenario?

I've a MDI Parent form. It holds a GroupBox along with some labels. I have
one more form which is a child form this parent. When I open the child form
it gets hides behind parent form's GroupBox. I tried Groupbox.sendto back()
on parent form and Me.BringtoFront () on childform__Acti vated() area, but NO
JOY...

Thanks in advance.

That's by design. Set the Dock property of the GroupBox.

Hai,

I tried the Dock property of the group Box... It works something like a
frame of ASP. What i need is this groupbox should go back and my child forms
should overlap on this group box.

Thanks,
Ajai

(AFAIK) This is not possible (by design).

I am using SQL 7 with an MS Access 2000 MDB front end, using bound forms with ODBC linked tables. In one form, the user needs to be able to check a box to select one or more records. This is accomplished with a local table containing two fields: the primary key value of the SQL table and a boolean field used for the check box. Since the local table used to contain the boolean field is local to the MDB file, the result is a heterogeneous...

I have a command button with the following code: DoCmd.OpenForm "frmSearchAssignments", , , "SearchAssignmentID = 1" (SearchAssignmentID is the PK, auto number) When it runs, the form opens but shows all records, rather than going to the one I want.

Very strange behavior, but I suspect some is A2K and some might be for me to correct. Just trying to see if anyone can help and advise.
