Keep all forms maximized

Hi,

I have a number of forms that are displayed one at a time. I need to display
them all maximized. I can do this fine, but there's an annoying problem
though.
When I close one form to open the other, the next form first appears NOT
maximized and ONLY THEN gets maximized. This causes a glitch in the user
experience.
So, how can I make forms change smoothly between each other?

Thank you in advance

Hope this helps. I build a macro that has, open form, maximize for each form
and also a close form line for each form. In the properties of each form I
refer to the correct macro in the on close and on open properties

For example when I closeform A it runs this macro from the on close property

mcrFormOp.menuO

This macro opens form B and then maximizes it. The new form shows up
completely maximized.

You could try placing this code in the Forms On Open event:
DoCmd.Maximize

Yes, I've done that and that's what's giving the forms that behaviour. Thabks
anyway.

Thank you very much. That's precisely the effect I was looking for.
However, now the forms take a bit longer to load (open). Any suggestions to
minimize that loading time?
