Pete,

In addition to Neil's suggestion, I think you can also put the code in the Form's Load() event without using the DesignMode test.

>Hello all, I have a class attached to my base form class ( in the constructor ) which records and restores the form's position , this works very well at runtime, however !!!!, when I open any form that utilises this class in the IDE, the "PositionForm" class is firing and obviously the form's position in the IDE is wherever the form last was at runtime, this is unwanted behaviour, anyone know a workaround ?
