Microsoft Access - Auto Resizing SubForms

We all develop forms based on our current setup and that mean that when our forms are deployed to production, they often run on systems with different settings, different screen size and resolutions thus causing us and our users headaches at times and providing a sub-optimal user experience.

In this video, I demonstrate 2 different techniques to automatically resize subforms to maximize their footprint within the available space. This is great to minimize wasted real estate and maximize the data displayed. These techniques also adjust sizing when the main application or parent form is resized.

This helps give a more polished look and feel to your works, standardizes placement of controls (scrollbars, ...), makes it responsive to resizing and optimizes the data displayed to your user. Everyone wins.
