[AccessD] API: Remove Close button from maximized forms

I just looked at one of my forms - try this:

Control Box = No
Min Max Buttons = None
Close Button = No
Whats This Button = No

This combination of property settings keeps everything not visible on my
forms (but I always have a separate Close button).  However, I haven't used
maximized forms so I haven't seen what that would do.

Good Luck
Dan

The code actually removes the restore window button. The problem with
turning off the close button is that when a form is maximized in code
the button reaapears.

You can turn the Close button for forms on or off using each form's
property
sheet.  I turn it off for every form.  Same for Min/Max.

Perhaps that would work . . .

I am using the API: Remove Close button from maximized forms from the
Access Web website.(www.mvps.org/access/api/aqpioo22.htm) It works great
on the first form in the DB that opens. On subsequent forms the result
is not as good. The form opens to full size with the blue bar across the
top. I use the following lines of code to run the function from the on
open event.

 

DoCmd.Restore

DoEvents

MaximizeRestoredForm Me

 

I have also tried it explicitly naming the form with the same result.

 

Thanks for your ideas.
