MS Access Forum / Forms / February 2008Prevent maximizing
If Form A has been opened and the user has maximized it, how can I prevent Form B from opening in a maximized state? You can't. Access is an MDI (multi-document interface) application, so maximizing one object maximizes them all.

Doug, wouldn't Me.Restore in the Form_Load event of FormB do the job? SignatureThere's ALWAYS more than one way to skin a cat! Answers/posts based on Access 2000/2003 Yes, but it would also restore all other open forms.

Kathy, I always hide the maximize and minimize buttons from users, that way I can control the size of all forms on the screen.
