How do I allow the switchboard to run permanently in the background rather
than in the front....?
It is a popup at the moment to keep its small shape, but is always displayed
at the front if I click on any 'open form' on the switchboard.

Any help would be terrific thanks.
 
Thanks for helping so quickly...

I have done that and the switchboard form is no longer in front, its
expanding.
When I click on the clients tab on the switchboard, the client listing
appears which has a code when loaded the clients listing maximises to full
screen. However when I then close the clients form, to see the switchboard,
the switchboard is now also maximised.... any ideas?

Thanks.
 
I tried nWind and changed the Categories form to have the following:

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

When I picked Categories from the switchboard the form maximised. Closing
returns me to a normal sized switchboard.

I'd guess your code differs, or something else is re-sizing it. I think you
need to post a bit of the code.
 
There is quite a bit of code on the switchboard form.... any suggestions?? As
I have a linked to bring up any reminders before entering the switchboard
etc, and there is a splashscreen which opens the switchboard after a timed
event...... I have no idea where to start looking on the switchboard code
for an inaccurate minimization code....
