Doesn't work is not a very descriptive phrase. Does it mean nothing happens or does it mean something happens but not what you want?

Do you want to minimize your access window but have your forms remain?

Hi. Welcome to AWF!

What does doesn't work mean? Can you post some screenshots? If not by using VBA, how would you do it manually?

Thanks for your reply

So, as others have said the normal method is to use

DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdAppMinimize

You said this doesn't work. What doesn't work?
Post up some pictures?
a)What the above does
b)What you want to see

I have read the conversation but I am still not clear. The solution given to you by several others minimizes the application, but that which is in the taskbar is created and managed by Windows, not by Access. You CAN'T run anything in the taskbar because it is just a graphic equivalent of the TaskManager list of applications. It comes from the internal Windows process list.

So can you tell us what you want / expect to see when this minimization happens, and can you tell us what ACTUALLY happens when you try to run the minimization? In other words, tell us (or via screen shot, SHOW us) actual results that are different than what you wanted.

Hi. Since we can't see you clicking on that button, nor can we see the code behind it (e.g. does it have [Event Procedure] in its Click event?), the perhaps you could tell us what happens if you do the following steps instead:

1. Press Ctrl + G
2. Type DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdAppMinimize

What happened? Anything? Nothing?

Some more questions: Which version are you using? How many monitors are you using?
