Dear Sirs
I have a menu form which automatically opens up when Access is opened.
To get rid of the MS menues I choosed that it has to open like a pop-up.
If Access opens, now the form opens as well - but only as a minimized
window. I would like that it opens in full screen.
How can I do that?
 
Hi

Open the form in design view and right click to open the properties box.
Select the Event column
Select On Open
Click the build option and select code builder
You will see this

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)

End Sub

You need to add just one line of code so it looks like this

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
DoCmd.Maximize
End Sub

Save and close the code builder and the form then when you open again it
will open maximimized

Hope this helps
