>>>>>>>Full Screen Form Q<<<<<<<<<

If you set Form's BorderStyle property to none and window state to vbmaximized then the form appears as fullscreen without showing the startmenu etc. How can I make it to show the start menu????? I want to create my own Form (already did) and I need to add a maximization to it and it can't be FullScreen (I want to see start menu). Thanks for any help

Why don't you make the form, and use the api to show the startmenu after the form is loaded.

Code:

---

Private Sub Form_Load()
'your code here
End Sub

---

-or-

Code:

---

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
'your code here
Timer1.Enabled = False
End Sub

---

...and the API to do it would be ... (your answer here)
Sorry no idea.

If I'll show the start menu after my form is loaded (or during that event) it won't stop it from disappearing after my form will get focus again (basically my form will be FullScreen every time it gets focus)

If I show it as vbNormal at startup and then resize it vbMaximize then everything is OK.
NO MORE FULLSCREEN :cool:
