Actually I think what the questioner is asking is there a way to have the
form fill the whole screen with no menu bars or anything. If this in
actuality your question the answer is both yes and no.
Yes absolutely you will need to creat a "Maximize" Macro like Karl
suggested, then have it run in the "OnLoad" fucntion of the form.
No - you can't completely shut down all of the menu bars. But you can turn
the majority of them off. Make a copy of your database, then in the copy
select Tool from the menu and select Statup... This will bring up a dialog
box that shows what options start with the program. Select a form that you
want to display upon opening the database (usually the switchboard). Uncheck
anything that is a menu or toolbar. Then restart the database, you will not
see anything other than the form you select as the start-upf orm (usually the
switchboard)>
