Default Position form load point as top left??

Sorry guys. Have read through all the posts on positioning of forms and can't
find any that specifically address this.

My question is how do I set the default load position of the form to the top
left. When I load my form even though I have turned off the centering option
it loads somewhere down the bottom half and off centre. How do i set it so it
loads with the top left question in the top left of my screen?

Thanks.

Hi

Open the page(s) in design view.
Position the various "bits" of the page where you want them.
Then immediately press Shift-S
Save
Close and reopen

try the following, as

Private Sub Form_Load()

DoCmd.Restore
Me.Move 0, 0

End Sub

read up on the Move method in VBA Help, so you can fine-tune the placement
of the window if you wish.
