6. Edit your Main Menu Form

7. Put a button somewhere that calls SaveAppWindowPostion. Click it.

8. Set your database's startup form to StartupF

9. Shut down and restart your database. 

10. Enjoy.

NOTES

If you are using a Database Icon file if it's missing the code won't work. See Check Icon File Code. If there is demand, I may work checking the icon file into v2.

If you use this database on another computer, you may open it to a location that's off your screen. Hold down the SHIFT key to bypass the startup form. Adjust the settings manually in the SettingT (or delete them). Remember these coordinates are relative to your MAIN display monitor.

My code will create a table called SettingT to save settings. You can use this table too if you want. If you already have a SettingT table, you'll need to rename it (or mine, and the related code).
