[AccessD] How to Show a Specific Report at Initiation Time (When there is also a default form)

All,

We have an Access 2007 application that is used  by a number of people.

The form that is automatically opened for this ap is a type of report menu.

Recently a key player has asked that when the application is opened, he would like to see one report automatically shown on the screen (without needing to push any button or select any tab).

Is there a way to have a default form, and yet open a report and give it the focus.

I know how to discern the user-id, that it not a problem.

The problem is that if I open up the report on the Form Load Event, the report is opened, but only a tab is shown for the report, and the report itself is not visible as it is covered by the default form.

I thought that this would be easy to do .  I must be missing something.

Thanks,
Brad
