In the forms Load event, use the move method to reposition and size the form, something like:<br />
<br />
Private Sub Form_Load()<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; Me.Move 3000, 3000, 7500, 5000<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; <br />
End Sub
</div>

I created this code to run on the got focus event of a control in the working form, opening a &quot;reference form&quot;<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; DoCmd.OpenForm &quot;CASp_zLkupImplementationP<wbr />lanPriorit<wbr />yListFrm&quot;,<wbr /> acFormDS<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; DoCmd.MoveSize -10080, 6480, 4320, 2160<br />
<br />
<br />
which partially addresses the issue - two things I want to correct but I'm not sure how to do it<br />
<br />
1) Set position relative to the control that currently has focus rather than to the available screen area (that is set the top of the reference form 1&quot; right and at the same vertical position as the control on the working form)<br />
2) I don't want the cursor to jump to the pop-up its just ref info.<br />
<br />
thanks

I have an access 2013 application where I have created a pop-up reference form that is opened when I get focus on a field and then closed when I lose focus - The form is a datasheet view and I would like to size the form and set its location - is there a way to do this?
