Form view

[Guest]

I have created a form in access. Whenever it is open, it opens in a maximied
view (fill screen), how can I set it up so that it opens in a minimised view

 

[Guest]

If you actually mean minimized, then set the Window Mode arguement of the
OpenForm method to acIcon. If, on the other hand, you want it smaller than
fully maximized, in desing view, set the size of the form, then save it.

It was smaller than fully maximised I was after, and I am afraid I have
already tried what you suggested but every time I close the database then
reopen it and reopen the form it set to maximise, is there anything in the
properites I could re-set

Code the form's Open event:
DoCmd.Restore

Note: This will cause all other objects to also open at less then
Maximized.
If you want the other objects Maximized after you exit this form,
code this Form's Close event:
DoCmd.Maximize.
