E.Q.
Greetings,
I'm trying to polish up a database and thought I'd try to do some cosmetic
things. First, I have a start form (frmStart) that looks good as designed;but
when called from a form or report on a maximized window it would also show up
maximized. I found the "Popup" property and set that to yes but now whenever
I call up a report or form from frmStart, frmStart remains on top, blocking
the object I was trying to open. Am I missing a property somewhere or will I
need to put a bit of code in to make sure frmStart gets out of the way when
another object is called up.
Another question regarding Maximized window: the Help screen directed me to
the DoCmd.Maximize command and I inserted that so reports open on a more
readable screen. I'd like to orient the sheet so the user sees the form at
the upper left.
As I reread this I realize the connection between the two issues may seem a
bit tenuous, please forgive the "two-for-one" shot, but I have a hunch that
both issues will be quite simple for an experienced developer to solve.
Peace
