[AccessD] Ribbons

Hi Gustav,

Well - I have hundreds of users across four customers and no one has
complained over many years.  

They can maximize the Access window or set it to whatever size they want.
The report will maximize inside the Access window.

Hi Dan

I can't believe you do this in the time of large wide-screen monitors in
common use. 
Such an app I would regard as, well, rude. Can't find a better/worth word
...

Isn't maximized apps a left-behind from the days of DOS?

Hi Tony,

Also, when a report opens, I use DoCmd.Maximize to be sure that the report
screen covers everything else.  When the report closes, I use DoCmd.Restore
to get everything back to its previous condition.

Here's something I learned by trial and error:  Don't place DoCmd.Maximize
in the Open event for the report.  Instead, place it immediately after the
code which opens the report like this:

    DoCmd.OpenReport "rptXXX", acViewPreview
    DoCmd.Maximize

HTH!
Dan
