Hi,
I have an Access 2000 database with one main form in which all subforms
are embedded. In this form I have a timer which closes the form,
detaches the linked (ODBC) tables and reopens the same form with a
login dialog (initiated in onOpen).
When I open the application the form maximizes (as it should). But when
the code reopens the form, the form is not maximized. I have
DoCmd.Maximize in onOpen,onLoad,o nActivate. What else can I try to get
this form open maximized?
The code I use to close and reopen the form is:
Sub IdleTimeDetecte d(ExpiredMinute s)
Dim frmName As String
frmName = "OpenForm"
DoCmd.Close acForm, frmName, acSaveYes
DisconnectTable ("") 'this detaches the linked tables
DoCmd.Maximize
DoCmd.OpenForm frmName 'here the form opens non-maximized
End Sub
Thanks for your help

If you take a closer look at your last two lines of code, you are
trying to maximize the form before opening it. Reverse the order and
you should be fine.

Mmm....
You're right. But still it is odd. The form does not listen to the
maximize commands in the onOpen event.
My consideration to put the command before the DoCmd.OpenForm command
is that usually, if the database window is maximized, the forms open
maximized as well.
Anyway. Thanks for your tip. It solved my problem!

Thanks for last response.
Same database ...... have a form and a subform. On the subform I have a
button which opens another form to give info as to input. When I return to
main form and subform the entire form is distorted and shrunk in size. To
return it to proper size need to put it into design view and maximise it.
Any thoughts?

Hey Group,
When I minimize and then maximize a form (in windows application), I see a
significant drop in memory usuage in the task manager. I tried to do the
same thing programatically during the form load event, but I don't see any
significant drop in memory usage. Anybody know why?
Thanks,

I have an MDI parent application with several forms inside it.
As the user switches between forms, I am forcing a maximize to keep it
filling up the parent window.
When the user has one particular form displayed, sometimes the screen really
gets messed up.
It gets into this weird mode where the child form is still maximized inside
the parent, but it only takes up half the window! The bottom half is gray,
and only the top half shows the...

Hi,
I have on form MenuBar, Toolbar, and Grid control.
Form property is set to form opens as Maximized.
Form maximizes through whole screen, but I don't see bottom part of grid,
because TaskBar (of Windows) is above grid. Why form maximizes below
Taskbar?
How to maximize form so that form is resized to Taskbar, but not further,
because bottom part of form will be below Taskbar?

Hi
When I maximize a form in VB.Net 2003 the bottom of the form gets
hidden
by the start bar (so my status bar is invisible). How can I get my app
to maximize to the usable screen area above the start bar?
Thx Mrozu

Hi,
On a simple form, I have a ListBox control. This listbox control is loaded
with around 800 text items of somewhat short length. There are also some
other controls on the form, buttons. When the form need to repaint itself
after e.g. maximize, it happens somewhat slow, I can see the buttons redrawn
one by one. I realy do not understand why. If I load twice the amount of text
into the list control, the form repaint itself twice as...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
