Look into appropriate dfm file.<br />
Maybe left top right bottom values are such that it is out of screen.<br />

this can happen if the program was written in a different version of Delphi than the one you are trying to open it with, specifically when the form was NOT saved as Text DFM

I have a legacy product I am being forced to maintain and a couple of the forms do not pop up when clicked so that I may view / modify them in the form designer.<br />
<br />
I double click the name from the tree and nothing happens.<br />
<br />
Can anyone think of a reason for this?<br />
<br />
Thanks
