Is there anyway to control where a form is opened up to on a windows screen?

MainView objects?

Ive dug this out take a look and see what you can come up with:

Dim MV

Set MV = Application.MainViews.Add("YOURFORM", 2, False)
MV.Height = 600
MV.Width = 800
MV.ShowModal

It is possible to control the position of the form as well as the size, you just have to play about with the code a bit.

Here is an idea to look in to...
I don't recall if MV exposes an hWnd property, but if not then you could access the hWnd of the Form that you are loading using hte MV container. Then use some Win32 APIs to set the Top and Left of the Window (dialog form) using that hWnd.

OK Todd, you know I don't have a 'vbscript within SLX' clue of how to use an exposed hWnd property.....

Hi, did you ever come up with a way to do this. It appears like I may need to do something like this.


 


thank you
