SYMPTOMS
When you switch the focus away from a form in a Microsoft Access
database, the Resize event occurs unexpectedly for the form losing focus.
CAUSE
The form losing focus is maximized and you are changing focus to another
maximized object. All multiple-document interface (MDI) objects that do
not have focus are automatically restored to a windowed state behind the
maximized MDI form that has focus. When the current form loses focus,
Windows automatically restores it to a windowed state, causing the Resize
event to occur.
STATUS
The Windows MDI behavior is by design.
