access 2003 startup option,can't display startup form in maximum v

's Computer Specifications

Hi There,
I have a swirchboard that starts with a default form. I have selected in the
startup options area to automatically display this switchboard form. When the
file is opened is displays the switchboard form in a minimized view. I want
this to be set at the maximum window view. Does anyone have any ideas how to
achieve this?
Many Thanks
Regards
Allan

Add this line of code to the Event Procedure for the Load event of the form:
Private Sub Form_Load()
DoCmd.Maximize
End Sub
