Can anyone send me a copy of a simple database showing how to maximize a form or forms as soon as they open.

Using my switchboard menu, I would like to have it and all other forms maximize automatically regardless if I return to a previous screen(form).

Someone said to use the =DoCmd.Maximize in the ON OPEN event, so that is exactly what I did to each form. I pasted "=DoCmd.Maximize" in the On Open box from the Form's properties. It works, but with a slight delay showing the form as it goes from default size before the form is maximized. In other words, there is probably a better way of doing this. I would like to do this using a Module to automate the process, but I am not an expert in code. Therefore, I believe with a simple database, I can see HOW to code this procedure. Don't know how something so simple can turn into something so hard.

Thank you to anyone that can help.
 
Put the DoCmd.Maximize on the OnOpen event of your switchboard.Then everything you open up from there should be maximized after that.
