Hi All

I hope this isn't a dumb question, but here goes...

How do I maximise a form on screen, automatically? I have tried manually maximising it (design view), then 'running' it, which is fine, until I open it again, when it has shrunk. Aaaaaarrrrrgh! I expect I'm not doing something really simple - please put me out of my misery!

in your bit of code for opening the form after docmd.openform

put

DoCmd.Maximize

and it will open the form in a maximized window

just to make it clear

e.g.

DoCmd.OpenForm "UserView"
DoCmd.Maximize
 
Thanks Tim - thought it might be something simple!

Ta da
