Default form

[vicsaccess]

ok, been doing good all day coding some forms to open and minor things. is there a code that i can use that will make a form always maximized and stay in the background? i have all my other forms that lead off of this one minimized to the side of the action of this main form and would like to keep it that way.

put docmd.maximise in the form open event

however, depending on how you have things set up, it won't necessarily stay in the background - if it has the focus it will come to the fore.
