The reason CTRL+F10 doesn't work ALL the time is that it's a toggle that switches between maximized and normal state. If you have a resource file active at the time the report is run, it remembers that state of the preview the last time you ran it. Therefore, doing the KEYBOARD '{CTRL+F10}' maximizes it the first time, puts it back to the small size the second time, and just keeps alternating.

Turn off the resource file before stuffing the keyboard as follows:

SET RESOURCE OFF
KEYBOARD '{CTRL+F10}'
REPORT FORM xxxx PREVIEW
SET RESOURCE ON


Another method you can use is to add the following line in the INIT method of the Data Environment of the report:

ZOOM WINDOW "Report Designer" MAX
