    Access 2007 Pop up form Issues

    Hi Everybody

    Does anyone know the code for the following:

    A Command button Clickevent
    Make Form into Popup form
    Minimize the database container
    Be able to move the form around the desktop with the Form minimized
    End Sub

    Thanks in advance

    Bob

      I'm a bit confused.
      * Typically you make a form a Popup form by setting that form-level
      property. It's typically not done dynamically. Is that what you need?
      * If you minimize the database container the popup form minimizes with
      it. You can create the illusion of the db container disappearing by
      hiding it behind the popup form, and moving it when the popup moves.

        Hi Tom

        Thanks for the quick reply
        Iwas hoping to be able to pop the form out of the db container
        dynamically
        but as you say this is just not possible

        I guess I'll just have to live without it. Thanks anyway
