Switchboard Manager

[Megan]

I have used the switchboard Manager to create a
swtichboard for my database.

Everything works fine but when I open up a report and
maximize the page then close it and go back to the
switchboard main menu the switchboard is then maximzed and
doesn't look very nice. Is there a way to maximize some
pages and other not?

If so how would I go about doing this?

Thanks..

When you maximize or restore a form or a report, all other open forms or
reports are also maximized or restored, unless their popup property is set
to 'Yes' (you'll find the popup property on the 'Other' tab of the
properties window in form design view).

You can programmatically restore the form when it receives the focus by
adding the following code to the form's Activate event procedure:

DoCmd.Restore

Thanks, I used the DoCmd.Restore and it worked..

I have another question though, When I open a report it
automatically opens up in the minimize view is there any
way to open it up in the maximize view from the
switchboard?

DoCmd.Maximize in the form's Open event.
