Help,

Hi there - I feel kind of foolish ... I can't seem to remember where the setting is so I can have a specific form load up when the database is opened.

The form that I want to have open is called
frmLogOn

Thanks for all the help,
Dave
 
Tools | Startup - in "Display Form/Page" select your form.

How are ya dsmart16 . . . . .

If you require the form to [blue]open maximized[/blue], you may have to use the [purple]AutoExec[/purple] macro object.

....or use the command line /x option to call different macros, each opening a different form.
 
If you want the form to open up maximized, why not just put the maximize command in the OpenForm method of the form, as such:
Code:
DoCmd.Maximize
I think that would do the trick quite easily.
