Hi, is there an easy way to set up a form to open to the maximim screen size
on each users screen? I think it would look better if the form filled the
whole screen.

Thanks,

CEV

Code the Form's Open Event:

DoCmd.Maximize
 
I did try this and it does maximize the form to the whole screen, but the
objects are then not centered in the middle of the screen. Any other
suggestions?

Thanks,

Hello Fred,

This behavior is as deigned since the objects are set to fixed position to
the left up corener and you could see this behavior in design view of the
form. You may need to use Windows API to calulate and move objects on the
fly when window size is change. However, it might be complex to do this
especially in Access.
