| I ran another developers application yesterday and now the forms in Access, new or old application, will not maximize. They will only size to the space available.I've uninstalled and reinstalled access 2000, with no change.Any thoughts? Is there a registry entry that messed up? Are these environment settings that are saved somewhere?Thanks |

| There is a way for a clever programmer to program his forms such that they fill the available space. In fact, such clever code is the only way to get MS Access to do this.Such code, if it exists, would be contained in the code behind form for each form that behaves in this manner. It is usually found in the Form_OnOpen or OnResize event, and uses API calls to measure the available space and size the current form window to that space.(API calls are a way to reach into the DLLs that come with Windows and call the functions within them.)I hope that helps.--SMerrillSeattle, WA |
