Dear All,

Please excuse my English as it is not my mother tounge. I got an Access
application with an MDI form. My question is how can I set the child
form to always cover all the available working area of the MDI form.
This is to maximize the area of working for users.

My second question is I got a form that I want it to be maximized when
it got focus. When the form loses focus, I want to restore it to normal
status. I tried to use docmd.maximize and docmd.restore in form_activate
and form_deactivate events but the result is not stable.

Thank you very much for any help
