Forms Will Not Open

When I opened my db on my laptop the mainmenu (and other) forms will not open. I can open in design view but not form view, it is as if I have a minimize or hide attribute.

If I open in layout and then click the form view from the ribbon pull down the mainmenu form stays open

none of the forms open. if i click on a form name in the left hand side form object list, none open, it is as if there is a 3rd screen, I am using a two monitor config. but I eliminated one and went back to a single monitor and still no visible froms

Can you open the database with the SHIFT bypass key? Did you run down the Troubleshooter?

when I open in design and then go to layout and then proprieties to center auto from no to yes and then save, they seem to work....any thoughts

	Richard Rost @Reply 4 years ago
Are you using popup forms? If so, turn off popup.

and when I minimize they don't go to the bottom left corner, I don't know where they are, no icon any where??

Do scroll bars appear in the Access window at all? Is it just this database or all databases? Have you tried creating a new database and importing all objects?
