Opening an Access Report using VB 1

[bdavis96]

I have a command button in VB 6 that I would like to use to open an Access Report. Please clue me into what code I can use. Thank you very much

Was it your question which I posted an answer to yesterday and then the thread disappeared?

I don't believe it was me. I think this is the first time I have posted this question. But I am not looking for the command button to print it, I am just looking for the command button to open it for viewing. Any help would be great. Thank you.

Thank you CCLINT , I was able to figure out from that code what I needed. One last question on this subject, how do I get the report and access to open maximized?

I can't answer how to open the app window to max but to open the report to max after
.DoCmd.OpenReport ReportName, lAction
put this on the next line
.DoCmd.Maximized

The only way I can think of that you can get access to the app window state is using the shell command.

Does anyone know of a way to open the app window to max using the above thread's code sample.

Thanks
