Don't want to see all the forms open at once. Help!

[PaulT]

At the moment as one navigates around my database they find that a number of forms are all open at the same time and therefore a number of different windows are used on the PC.

I want to smarten up the interface and I realise that I could use a series of macros to open and close forms. But this may become awkward and too complicated. So is there some code I could use so that each form opens "on top" of the previous one and so only one window is on view and available to the user?

Your assistance would be much appreciated!! Thanks very much!!

Have a look at the Modal and Pop Up properties of your form.

HTH.

Thanks for your speedy response!

Yes, Pop up seems to do the job - almost! The only problem is I then want each and every form to be consistent and fill the full screen.

In the Form Load event for each form you could add the following line:

DoCmd.Maximize
