Maximizing switchboard to take up entire screen

T

Teri

Is there a way that I can have my switchboard take up the entire screen when
I open it (tool bars at top of screen shouldn't show)?

Thanks for any help I can get.

You can add the following on the OnOpen event of the form in VBA:

"Docmd.Maximize"

As for the toolbars, you can do 2 things:
1) Open the database backend, click on Tools --- Startup, and untick display
status bar, allow full menus, allow builtin toolbars. Although note this will
effect your entire database and restricts what you can do majorly.
2) in VBA coding on the form in question add the following lines on the
OnOpen event:
"CommandBars("Yourtoolbarname").visible = false"
"CommandBars("Yourtoolbarname").enabled = false"
Copy the lines for every toolbar you want to make not show.

HTH.

Thanks so much for your help, but I do have a question. I am assuming that in
the future if I decide that I need the toolbars to be visible after all I
will be able to change it back, is this correct?
