Open Form Maximized

[Guest_imported]

Is there a way to program Access to open a Form maximized when first opened?<br><br>

In the open event of the form, use DoCmd.Maximize<br><br>Hope this helps. <p>Kathryn<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br>

Create a macro and select the action to Maximise. Place this macro in the 'On Load' property of the form.

and to expand on this idea, if you want the Access window itself to be maximized, create a shortcut on your desktop (or wherever you want it) to the specific database.&nbsp;&nbsp;then in the properties (right click on the shortcut icon and choose properties) of the shortcut find the Run window which is usually set to a default of Normal, and just change it to Maximized. <p>Brian Famous<br><a href=mailto:bfamous@ncdoi.net>bfamous@ncdoi.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
