Ok, this seems really lame to have to post this but in Access2007 none of my form or table windows have Mininize, Maximize, or the ability to resize. There is a Close X but nothing else. Being used to Access2003, I am used to being able to resize the windows or at least minimize them. The properties panel has control for these items but they do not appear when I set the properties to yes.
View RepliesI have a Form [frmLogon] which opens on db open to allow users to logon, once they have entered their username and password they click a cmdbutton which then minimises [frmLogon] and opens form [Navigation Menu].
On close of form [Navigation Menu] how can I get [frmLogon] to restore to its original open state from being minimised.By the way i have to keep [frmLogon] open as it provides an OpenArgs reference to another form for security data!
I created autoexec macrro. But when i open the form as a dialog box it doesn't show minimize and maximize button.. it only shows close button so what should i do..Also i want to create the log in form as well..So here is what i want
1) when i open the database it shows me log in box and if i put right password and username
- if i put wrong password it should keep promoting me until i put right login details and this login shouldn't be displaying the close button otherwise users can easily access through database.
2) the navigation form should be pop up.
Hi:
In MS Access:
In Forms section
DoCmd.OpenForm "Procedure", acNormal, , , acFormAdd, acDialog
I have one button for doing the above action, it works.
when the form come out, there is only close window (x), it doesn't have minimize window (_) option. How can I make minimize window button at the top right corner?
Thanks.
On my switchboard I have a button to open another form. I would like the switchboard to close autoatically when the button is pushed so that it is out of the way when the new form opens. Now, the new form opens in behind the switchboard which is why I want to ge the switchboard out of the way. Thank you.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have in the Form_Load() event, the following command:
Private Sub Form_Load()
DoCmd.Maximize
End Sub
It has been fine for several weeks, and today, when I open the form, it does not maximize. Also, there are a few other commands that are not working, connected to macros, plus an "Exit" button that was created using the wizard. I checked all of the code and macros for accuracy and nothing seems to be wrong. I have no idea where to begin looking.
Any clues, helps or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Jake
I have read several tips to maximize my reports. The common one is the DoCmd.Maximize. However, when I type this into "On Open" on the properties window in the design mode I get the error message "Can't find the Macro "DoCmd".
How do I fix this?

is there a way that we can minimize access application to system tray.
this can be done in a vb project.
Hello,
I have tried using the following code to maximize my form on open but it is not working, any ideas?
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
On Error GoTo Err_Form_Open
DoCmd.Maximize
Exit_Form_Open:
Exit Sub
Err_Form_Open:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Form_Open
End Sub
When i make the maximized on opening by docmd.maximize, coud i get the form centered too?
right now im just adding form space on the leftside so it comes somewhere in the middle but if somone has a diffrent ressolution then it wont work as well.
I have some trouble getting a form to open maximized. This form is opening from a switchboard that is centered and not sizable. After clicking on a command button in the switchboard the form I am having trouble with opens in its own window, but I cannot get it to maximize automatically. I have been to every setting I know on the form properties but for some reason nothing seems to be able to get that form to open maximized.:confused:
Heeeeeeeeeeeeelp!!!!!

how to maximize the form when you load it?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want my Switchboard, and all subsequent forms to be maximized on open...so that the form name doesn't show. Is that possible?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a form that maximizes when it loads and that works fine, but when I run a macro to open it the command is bypassed. Is there a way around this?
I've tried setting the code to run on different events (open/activate) but that didn't change anything.
The reason I want a Macro to open it is so I can set the property to Add only, perhaps there's another way I can do that, perhaps as part on the form open event in VBA instead?
im try to close a form called "new job" and re-maxmise Form "main switch board"
i have manage to get my pop up form "main switch Board to minmise with Macro but unsure how to recall it when "new job" closed
I'm a newbie using Access 2007.I am trying to make things as easy as possible for the user of a database that I have been working on. The users maximum screen resolution is 1600 x 900 and I want to have specific forms automatically "maximise" to fit the screen.I have set the Form property "Fit to Screen=Yes" but it does not do what I am expecting and want.I also have "Auto Resize=Yes"
View 4 Replies View RelatedWho can tell me how to minimize Access window while it's form is on top of other open windows (e.g. other applications which are maximized like Excel). By using acCmdAppMinimize command, only the Access window is minimized and if other applications are maxmized, they will be on top. So is there any vba solution to do what I explained?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI would like to disable the Navigation Pane completely, based on the security level of the user that logs in, of course.
I have code that checks their level (I'm an "Admin" and everyone else is a "User"). If they are a user, then it hides the ribbon and minimizes the nav pane. If the login is mine, it enables everything.
That works, but the only problem is that the user can just maximize the Nav Pane on their own and access all the tables, and I don't want that. I can't find any code that completely disables the pane.
I have this code connected to my login button on my login form:
Code:
If Security = "User" Then
DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Ribbon", acToolbarNo
DoCmd.NavigateTo "acNavigationCategoryObjectType"
DoCmd.Minimize
Else
DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Ribbon", acToolbarYes
DoCmd.NavigateTo "acNavigationCategoryObjectType"
DoCmd.Maximize
End If
I can go to the options menu and disable the nav pane completely, so I know since only I have access to the ribbon, I could always go in each time and recheck the display nav pane option on that menu. But, that could be a little bit of a pain having to do that each time.
Also, I know I could finish the design and convert the DB to an MDE, but since my DB isn't broken up into a front/back end, I have to access that same DB everyone else uses, and if any changes need to be made, I don't want to have to use my backup, transfer over the changes any user made to the records, and then reconvert it back to an MDE each time.
If it's possible, I'd like to do all this using VBA. If they aren't an ADMIN user, then disable everything for them, but if I login, enable everything for me.
Is there a way to minimize the navigation pane and the upper tabs on start up? I have several big forms that don't seem to fit unless these are minimized.

I have my switchboard that when opened it looks like pic "switchboard 1" when I use the menu to open and then close any form my switchboard appears like pic "Switchboard 2". I have the code maximise on the on open event of the switchboard.
Do you have any idea on how to get back the switchboard as on the first pic??

How to disable the Minimise, Restore and Close Buttons at the very top right hand corner of the Access application?
I have got buttons on my database to open / close everything so no need for them, even to hide the full Title bar probably be okay.
I am running Access 2007.
I have been running 2003 on XP SP2 for some time but a couple of days ago I needed to do a 'detect and repair' on Word but without resoring defaults. When I opened Access, the Properties Window was back to its default (small) size and couldn't be resized. An uninstall/reinstall made no difference.
Has anybody got any idea what might have happened and what I can do to put it right? I usually have it the height of the screen and this is driving me nuts!
