Why doesn't my report window remember its size? I've:

[1] Turned of autoresize in the report properties
[2] Opened the report in Print Preview
[3] Set zoom to 100%
[4] Sized the form by dragging the borders of the window
[5] Clicked Save in the File menu (it isn't on the toolbar)

Next time I open it, the blasted thing is too small again.
 
To maximize the window: put in Report_Open
DoCmd.Maximize

To set the Zoom of the report: where you open the report
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdZoom100

HTH,
Debbie

With respect, I don't think it's the zoom that is the problem, that part
stays at 100% - it's the size of the window that it forgets.

I *never* maximise a window, never, never never ;-)
 
In Report_Close after you call your form you can docmd.restore

I do it all the time.

IME Report windows change size unless you open them maximized which is what I
always do. The DoCmd.Restore in the Close event allows the maximize to be
undone when the report is closed.
