Report Must be Clicked to Enlarged

[rmcompute]

I developed an application which runs several reports. When a report opened
it remained minimized so I put a command in the open event of each report:

DoCmd.Maximize

This solved one problem, however, the report still does not fill the entire
screen until the report is clicked after it is displayed. Is there a way to
do this programatically so that when a report is opened, it not only
maximizes, but fills the entire screen without the user having to click on it
?

Place the following command after the docmd.maximize

DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdZoom100

Where you can choose the appropiate zoom factor you like (100, 150 etc.)

Are you talking about the report's Zoom level?

Code the event that opens the report:

DoCmd.OpenReport "ReportName", acViewPreview
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdZoom100
DoCmd.Maximize

I put in the code and got the following error:

Runtime Error '2046'
The command or action zoom 100% isn't available now.

Where did you put the code? You cannot call it in the Report's code module. It
needs to be the line following the one that opens the report.

This code does NOT go in the report, it goes in the event (i.e. the
Command Button click event on a form) that you use to open the report.

It worked. Thank you.
