full screen the database 1

[mws5872]

Hi everyone I just had a quick question about how to maximize my database. I want the controls to be hidden ex. file edit etc. I just want the switchboard to be full screen and the form. Can someone explain to me how you do this.(when you open the file)

If you want to hide the ACcess window you must design all forms as pop-ups and larger than the Access window..

ok I understand now but how do you do this?

Change the form Load event to maximize the window.

[COLOR=blue]Private Sub Form_Load()
   DoCmd.Maximize
End Sub[/color]

Then
Set the Properties of the form

Properties > Other tab

PopUp = Yes
Modal =Yes

Caution!! you must have a exit button to exit the DB sometime you have to use TaskManager to close
