Is it possible to open a form maximised when the database is opened? Mine opens half size.

Cheers

Thanks for your help. I can't find the Form_Load() event. Where is it please?

You have to go into your code section for your form. Select the form name, go to your toolbar and look for the multicolored square; the tooltip will say "Code". Click on this. You are now in the form's code window. There are two drop down boxes near the top. One says "General". Drop this box down and select "Form"> The second box says "Declarations". Drop this down and select "Load". You should now see:

Private Sub Form_Load()
'Place your code here
End Sub

Place your code (in this case Docmd.Maximize) here.
