Start Up Switchboard Maximized

[Nour469]

Hello,

This should be simple but I could not figure it out!
I need my switchboard page to start up maximized so user cannot see other database item, which preferably are minimized. I could not find the option in the Tools/startup.

Many thanks for help.

In the Open() Event of the Form you want Maximized, place the following code:

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
  DoCmd.Maximize
End Sub

Just be aware that after doing that, all your forms will open maximized! To avoid this (assuming you want to) use this code in subsequent forms

Private Sub Form_Load()
  DoCmd.Restore
End Sub

This will cause the subsequent forms to open as you've sized them originally.
