This is a follow up to my earlier video about moving the application window using code:    • Move the Access Application Window Using Code  
In that video, I explained that a popup form would not move as it is independent of the application window.

In this video, I demonstrate how the popup form can also be moved with the Access application window using code.
It was created in response to a challenge from Karl Donaubauer (MVP) on LinkedIn

The demo app and all code is available from https://isladogs.co.uk/move-app-windo...
