Forms 4.0 runtime - Maximizing windows

it is true that Forms 4.0 does not support any functions to maximize the application window. But you can write an USER_EXIT giving window calls to maximize it. It may look some thing like this.

      
      hwndClient   = GetWindow(hwndCurrent, GW_CHILD); 


      /* Send message to current Application Window (Parent) to maximize */ 


      SendMessage(hwndCurrent, WM_SYSCOMMAND, SC_MAXIMIZE, 0L); 


      /* Send message to current child window of Application to maximize */ 


       hActiveChild = LOWORD (SendMessage(hwndClient,WM_MDIGETACTIVE,0,0L));   
      SendMessage(hwndClient,WM_MDIMAXIMIZE,hActiveChild,0L);
      SendMessage(hActiveChild,WM_SIZE,SIZEFULLSCREEN,0L);

This will work only under windows. Hope this helps.
