Problem with Launcher Expert

Problem with Launcher Expert in Paradox Runtime & Distribution topic (part of our Corel Paradox / ObjectPAL Coding group).

Quick Search: Problem   Launcher   Problem Launcher   Problem Launcher Expert

Paradox really puzzles me, a lot.  I am trying to create a launcher with tabs for my Forms, Reports and Queries.  I used the Launcher Expert but it will not let me re-size the form to the desktop.  The option "Size to desktop" is checked off under preferences but the form will not comply.  When I move the form in Run mode to the place I would like it to be on the screen and then run it, it automatically changes to the original settings where the top of the form is almost at half the page.  When I hit design mode again it stays at the wrong settings.  I don't have this problems with any of my other forms but this is the only one I have used the Launcher Expert to create.  Any ideas?  I could just create it from a blank form but I'm trying to avoid programming all those buttons, I have a lot.

 Thanks,

 Teresa

The launcher expert puts some code into the page open event that controls the location and size of the launcher screen commenting or removing this code should allow you to do what you want.

Thanks Daniel,

Being a novice at Paradox, SQL and Object PAL I was trying to avoid the whole messing with the code thing.  However I cut and pasted the Event coding from another form that was working correctly and it worked  :-)

Thanks,

Teresa
