Toolbars, etc.

Is there a way to design a form with no toolbar including the standard
toolbar..?.

I have a startup form that i have designed/redesigned to it looks great in
resolutions above 800x600 but doesn't quite fit in the larger resolution. i
want to eliminate the toolbar for more space..
i've looked at automatic scaling but it seems over my head
thanks

Your startup form can use statements like:

DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Menu Bar", acToolbarNo

to show or hide tool bars or the menu bar.

Just remember to unhide them as needed when the form closes.

Add this to the On Open event of the form.

DoCmd.ShowToolBar "Menu Bar", acToolbarNo
DoCmd.ShowToolBar "Form View", acToolbarNo


If you want to show them again ...

DoCmd.ShowToolBar "Menu Bar", acToolbarYes
DoCmd.ShowToolBar "Form View", acToolbarYes
