Access 2000, 2002 (XP) and 2003 forms have a new property "Allow Design Changes" that can help during design & test - you can view the form's property sheet at runtime, very handy.

When the Access application is ready for production, that property needs to be turned off, otherwise users will describe all the floating property sheets. The following code will turn off the property on all of your forms (as always, watch for line breaks):

Sub AllowDesignChangesNo()

 Dim db As DAO.Database

 Dim doc As Document

 Dim frm As Form

 Dim iSave As Integer

 Set db = CurrentDb

 For Each doc In db.Containers("Forms").Documents

 DoCmd.OpenForm doc.Name, acDesign

 Set frm = Forms(doc.Name)

 iSave = acSaveNo

 With frm

 If .AllowDesignChanges Then

 .AllowDesignChanges = False

 iSave = acSaveYes

 End If

 DoCmd.Close acForm, .Name, iSave

 End With

 Set frm = Nothing

 Next doc

 Set db = Nothing

End Sub
