 Form won't show on some computers Hi,
I have a form that won't show on my laptop but works ok on my desktop.
The code to load the form is
Private Sub lblM5000_Click()
Load frmM5000
frmM5000.Visible = True
End Sub
there are several of these labels on the main form & they all come up in the
task bar when activated but none of the show.
they all work ok on my desktop machine. The main form uses SODresizer to
resize all the components & I suspect this might be at fault but can't see
the difference between laptop & desktop.

Form won't show on some computers Try frmM5000.Show,
e.g.
Quote: > Private Sub lblM5000_Click()
> frmM5000.show
> End Sub

Which he should be able to check using this addition to his Sub
Private Sub lblM5000_Click()
Load frmM5000
frmM5000.Visible = True
MsgBox "Top = " & frmM5000.Top & "; Left = " & frmM5000.Left
End Sub
