Maximizing the form

Even though i put the command DoCmd.Maximize in the OnOpen event of
the form, the form does not take the whole space of the screen, but is
somewhat shortened. How can i make my form spread over the whole space
of the screen ?

Design your form in high resolution...whatever your's is set up at.
Folks opening the app in lower resolution may not be able to use it, but
you will.
