Not that some techniques to do this will place the form on the screen based on the users monitor resolution...
So the form may not appear in the *exact* same location on each users computer, ...but may remain in the same "relative" position...

You could also store it in a table: tbl_User_Form_Pref:
UserID
FormName
FormLeft
FormTop
FormWidth
FormHeight
I rarely see a need for this level of detail, but I do use a similar technique with datasheets, because everyone likes to see their datasheets formatted a little differently.
