Maximize Window Space

N

NFL

I'm using MS Access 2003.

Question: When I open a form, is there a way I can move the form window on
top of the MS Access button bars and menu bar? The reason would be so I can
maximize the window space and allow other forms to appear on the screen.

Thank you,

Set the form's Popup property to True.

Set your form's popup property to Yes. When that form is opened it will no
longer be an MDI child form (ie restricted to the app's 'working area') so
can be positioned anywhere onscreen using the DoCmd.MoveSize command. Try
this in your form's OnLoad event:

DoCmd.MoveSize 0, 0
