    Cool Size of Access Window set to Fom size


    Hello,

    I have one form that opens when the database opens and no other forms open (it is a Navigation form). The size of this Form is always the same. However the Access Window around is bigger than the size of the form so there is a grey area around my form. I can, of course adjust this manually so the Access window fits the form, but when I open another Access database and do the same then the next time I Start my original database it is bigger again. Access remebers the Access size of the last session so it influences the next session.

    Because I always use the same form and is always of the same size is there a way to set the Acces window size exactly so that the Form fits in nicely. I think this should be done at start up so in the Form_Load or AutoExec.

    Try Docmd.Maximize in the Form_Load.

    Hi

    my thought

    take a look at the

    DoCmd.MoveSize you can specify size and position. Use it in the Event - form Load
