Okay, this is probably an easy one. I'm using Access 2007. I know how to do this with forms, but I can't figure out how to automatically maximize tables when they open. My other databases haven't had this problem, but the one on which I'm currently working does. It just opens up in a restored, but not maximized size. Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks!
Jeff
 
It shouldn't really matter because tables should never be directly opened in a properly designed database interface.
 
Allowing people to directly interact with tables or queries is dangerous and never done in an application that you create for other people. I don't even do it in apps I create for myself. If you want something that looks like a table but gives you the event processing control of a form, then use the wizard to create a form in spreadsheet view.
 
I'm still in the building phase of the database. Other people aren't using the database yet. I am aware that in most cases, tables aren't the way to go, however in this case, I am using tables. If anyone knows how to set up tables to automatically maximize, that would be helpful.
 
If you maximize the Database window, then any tables you open will also open maximized.
 
jsic1210 or anyone else who is having this problem:
In 2010,
Go to File and Options,
Current Database in your navigation pane,
Under Application Options, you will see "Document Window Options"
Change the radiobuttion to "Tabbed Documents"
