Is there a way that set MS Access to open a database with the window
maximizes? The initial window, within the program. I know it will open
to the last size and position, but maximized?

Thx
 
Hi,

Don't know if there is a switch within Access, but if you right-click your
database file from within Windows and click "Properties", you'll have the
option to run it Maximized.

maybe this help you.

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
DoCmd.Maximize

End Sub



Thanks
 
This isn't elegant and doesn't involve coding, but if you create a macro with
the single command "maximize" and name it something like maximizeform then
attatch it to the on open property of your startup form or any other form you
always wanto to open maximized, it will do the job.

If you are talking about the database window, the one that lists all the
tables, queries, forms, doohickies and fenerestoguses, you can name the macro
i mentioned earlier "AutoExec" and it will maximize both Access and the
database window, or start up form if you don't enable display of the database
window each time you start Access.

That was perfect. Nice and simple.
