Trouble with form resizing

Using Access 2000

I have created a  control panel which opens mazimized on_load.

Some of the forms its command buttons control are small.  I open them
on_load
restored.

When I click on one of these smaller forms my control panel also
resizes to restored from maximized.

I now have DoCmd.Maximize in on_load, on_resize, on_activate,
on_dactivate in my Control Panel properties.

The Control Panel is now  like a strobe light.

When I open the smaller forms, it still resizes to "restore".
When I close the smaller forms, it now automatically resizes to
"maximize"????

There must be a way to keep it maximized and let the smaller forms
open in front of it?

Please?  Yes?  No?

Only if you want to make all of the other forms popups.  If so set the Popup
property of each to Yes in design view.

THANK YOU!!!

That worked perfectly.

You have no idea how long I have been trying to figure this out.  It
doesn't seem to be documented anywhere I could find, either in books
or on the Net.

Thank you!
