I am under the impression that the form is not invisible but rather set behind the form that you &nbsp;are calling it...<br />
Instead of setting it to Popup yes you can open it like this <br />

<pre><code id="code-20-42041019-1">DoCmd.OpenForm NameOFTHEFORM, , , , , acDialog</code></pre>
Acdialog will ensure that it will popup above the current form

No, when it set it to yes it does display. <br />

Also changing the form load command so that it includes acdialog &nbsp; Also works. So I will incorporate both solution<br />

Thanks to both of you!

I created an access form set the pop up property to 'yes'<br />
When I run the form it shows up fine. If I make some edits to the form by adding controls or making other changes, and re-run the form, it runs but is invisible to the user.<br />
I've seen this kind of thing happen before from time to time but now it seems more regular. Does anybody have a fix for this or know why it's happening?

Form disappears at runtime when pop up property set to Yes?
