Access Screens not drawing correctly

I am using docmd.maximize when screens open to fill the screen.

I am fully patched and updated, Access 2000

This works as expected with one exception. The area that would not
have filled (the area outside the original size of the new form) does
not repaint properly and I am left with a ghost image in that area
only of the previous screen.

This isnt a HUGE deal because the area inside the size of the new form
paints fine and the screen functions as it is supposed to, but it is
as ugly as heck.

If I minimize the form and maximize it again, it redraws properly and
the ghost image dissapears.

Anyone have any ideas why this is happening, and better yet, how I can
sti it from occurring?

Thanks in advance.
 
I had a similar problem and I was able to fix it by moving
docmd.maximize
from Form_Open() event
to
Form_Load()
event.
I hope this helps.
