Hi All,

I created the AutoExec macro to run a form when I open up
the database. But I want it to open up in Full Screen
format. How do I do this, there is a maximize property in
the macro but not a full screen one. Let me know.

Thanks
Bobby

As far as I know, Full Screen and Maximize are the same.

Open the Form's property sheet.
Click on the Events tab.
On the Open event line write [Event Procedure]
Then click on the button with the 3 dots that will appear on that
line.
When the Open event code window opens, write, between the two already
existing lines:

DoCmd.Maximize

Exit the code window.
Run the form.
 
Hi Fred

In a later post in the thread in Macros, Bobby stated more clearly that he
wants to hide the Access application window.

It looks like you didn't see my reply in this thread (as per your post in
the m.p.m.a.), right?
 
Hi Van,
I haven't monitored Macros for some time now.
Strangely enough, I must have seen an original post from this poster but now
it's missing. All I see, in gettingstarted, is your reply, my reply then
this reply. His original is gone.

In some groups, 80% of new downloads are replies without an original.

Hi Fred

Bobby posted originally. I replied "already answered in Macros" 11/11 then
your original reply today (my time) and seeing your post in m.p.m.a., I knew
you didn't see my reply.

Have you tried removing the news account altogether and then re-add the
account using "msnews.microsoft.com".

Cheers
Van
