Maximize Switchboard On Startup

[Chris]

I have a really simple question and perhaps that's why I
can't get an answer. Anyhow I am dying to know how one
would get a switchboard to maximize on startup. I already
have it so it opens on startup and I tried to run a macro
on startup that opened the switchboard and maximized but
you can only open forms on startup. PLEASE someone tell me
the answer.

Chris,
Show the form's property sheet.
Select the Events tab.
On the Switchboard's OnOpen event property line, write:
[Event Procedure]
Then click the button with the 3 dots that appears on that line.

When the code window opens type

DoCmd.Maximize

between the 2 already exisiting lines.
Exit the code window.
Save the changes.

Thank you very much dude, that worked like a charm and
taking into account that I now next to nothing about VBA I
would have never figured that out. Thanks again!
