Form Width Grows

I have Access 2007 and am using the anchor feature on some of my controls. I
have the form set at popup=true, auto center=true, auto resize=false, fit to
screen=false, border style=thin, moveable=true and the windows are set to
overlapped instead of tabbed. I set the form to the exact size that I want
it and saved it before setting the border style=thin and popup=true. The
form initially has the correct size but overtime the form begins to get
wider. After some time of opening it I eventually have to go in and reset
the form's width. This is happening on several of my forms with the same
settings. Is there something I am overlooking?

Thanks for your help with annoying problem.

Try Popu=False, I think that may be your issue, but I would have to test and
don't have Access to my Access 2007 right now (no pun intended).

I can't remember if that is a pre SP2 bug or not? However if all else fails
resort to something like this:

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
DoCmd.MoveSize 0.7 * 1440, 0.7 * 1440, 8 * 1440, 6 * 1440

End Sub

Thank you for your help. As I mentioned before this happens on several of my
forms. Some of the forms are set popup=false and I still have the problem.

Thank you Mark. Does this docmd limit the size of the form to only these
specifications or is this generic? If specific I would have to include this
code for every form to meet it's specific size. There must be an easier way.

It's specific, but will work. Only use if you can't get Access to remember
the form size. Do you have SP2?

Yes I have SP2. I don't think this will solve the problem.
