Each form opens a new window

S

im using access 2003 and in run mode, every time i open a new form, it opens
a new window. so i could have potentially several windows open just for one
database. i have in the pass managed to set it up so all forms open in the
same window but i cant remember how i did it. ive searched all options in
access2003 and just cant find the button to click to enable all forms to open
in the same window.

does anyone know please?

thanks for the quick response. the window is already maximised. the problem
is the task bar at the bottom of windows, the one that shows you what
applications ar eopen on your pc. i can have several open for access. i know
theirs a simple setting that says something like open all forms in 1 window
but i just cant find it.

i have managed to find the option i was looking for. from the options menu in
access 2003, under the view menu, uncheck windows in taskbar.
