This code is not for everyone, just for those of us who like to work with maximized windows. This will explain how to force Visual Basic 6 to always maximize your code windows when opening projects. This method will always open windows maximized, not like VB5 when it would rememeber your settings.
VBcodersThis requires modification to your registry, please take steps required before making changes here.
Navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Visual Basic\6.0
Look to see if you have a string value of MDIMaximized, if not create a new one and set its value to 1. A value of 0 will return to normal sized windows.
Next time you open VB enjoy one less step of maximizing your windows.
