Problem building custom switchboard

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Access 2003/XP:
I'm building a switchboard using a form that opens either of two other forms. The two other forms are used to open labels or reports. All forms are sized exactly the same height and width. When the main form opens either of the other two, they display slightly offset from the main. I want them to overlay each other exactly because it is annoying to see the "jump" in position.


I tried setting the mode of the two forms mode to popup but the labels and reports stay "under" the popup form which I don't want because it interferes with the users ability to see the labels or reports.

How do I force the opened forms to stay centered, not "jump", and allow the labels and reports to be viewable? Autosize and autocenter are turned on.

Thanks.
