Docmd.restore feature

[John]

What is happening is that I have a form that is opened maximized. Sometime
the user may want to print and open up that form but that form doesn't not
need to be maxmized. The problem is when I use the docmd.restore function on
the open of that form, the form that was maxmized also becomes restored. Is
there a way to keep the first form maxmized.

Thanks in advance,
John

Put the command to maximize the form in the Activate event of the form.

First, may I suggest printing reports rather than forms? It really works
much better. Just save the form as a report and take it from there.
You say the form opens maximized, but sometimes when the user prints the
form it does not need to be maximized? I think you will need to refer to
actual form names, and to describe in more detail what you need to do. "The
form", "a form", and "that form" are ambiguous since you are apparently
talking about more than one form.
