Switchboard maximize at start up

[ArcticWolf]

Hi ,

How can I get my Switchboard to Maximize at startup please. It currently is
minimized when I open the Db and always have to click to max it. Anyone know
how to do it automatically on startup please?

Thanks in advance,

Peter

1. Open the Switchboard in Design view
2. View the form's properties
3. On the Events page, let "[Event Procedure]" be the event, and press the
". . ." for the form's OnOpen event to enter the module behind the Switchboard
3. Add the following code somewhere in the event:
DoCmd.Maximize

That should do it.

Peter,
Create a Macro called AutoExec, and add a Maximize command to it.
AutoExec (like the old DOS AutoExec) will run, every time the .mdb is
opened.

Hi ArticWolf,

Put this code:

DoCmd.Maximize

In the forms OpenEvent. That should do the trick.
