    How can I maximize/minimize a window of an Access application created from VB? I create the object by using:

    Code:
    Set appAccess = CreateObject("Access.Application")
    appAccess.Visible = True
    and I know that appAccess.hWndAccessApp will return the Access window handler. Does it exist an API function I can call to maximize/minimize it?

    Thanks in advance.

    Code:
    'in delcarations
    Declare Function ShowWindow Lib "User" (ByVal hwnd As Integer, ByVal nCmdShow As Integer) As Integer
    Const SW_MAXIMIZE = 3
    Const SW_MINIMIZE = 6
    'to minimize
    ShowWindow appAccess.hWndAccessApp, SW_SHOWMINIMIZED
    'to maximize
    ShowWindow appAccess.hWndAccessApp, SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.
