Report Preview Window Size

[millwheal]

I have a couple of applications which, on loading the database, automatically run a report in 'preview' mode.
Without me having set any parameters, in Access 97, the window size is set to 100%, which means that I can read the report easily.
Having now converted the databases to Access 2003, the window size is now set to 'fit' [as in fit to window], which means that the report typeface is so small I can't read it, and have to manually change the report and window size to be able to read it.
Is there a parameter hidden somewhere that determines the report size, or some code I can execute to make the changes automatically?

Thanks in anticipation!

Paul,

Thank you very much for the tip; the 'zoom' worked first time. I simply wasn't aware of it and couldn't find anything about achieving what I wanted in 'Help'.
With the report now at the size I wanted, I tried to find a way of increasing the size of the window to accommodate it. I couldn't find a way, but have settled for 'Maximise'; the report size was the main concern.

I usually maximize reports, but you can look at MoveSize in VBA help; I think it will let you size the window.

Paul,
Brilliant! MoveSize is just what I needed. Many thanks for your prompt assistance.
