Is there a switch setting in the config.fpw to maximize the EXE at startup? Is there a switch anywhere? I've read trhough the VFP documentation and haven't been able to find anything on the subject. Found a lot of related information, but no answer. I am currently expiramenting with the MODIFY WINDOW SCREEN FROM r1,c1 TO r2,c2 but this is an akward solution.

PROBLEM:
Users will load a form while the EXE is filling only a portion of the Win95/NT desktop. Then the user can't see all of the form so they maximize the EXE. If the application is maximized while a form is already open a portion of the form will usually remain hidden.

CLUDGY WORKAROUND:
Close the EXE. Restart the EXE. Maximize the EXE before any forms are opened.

QUESTION:
How can I maximize an application/EXE programatically?

Thanks,
DAB
