Gene, Here's some help in the "any" category - let's hope you get more qualified help after this. In the Transcript Dictionary, the topic on the "decorations" propery might help you, if the application you want to maximize from code is the Rev-built application itself. If you're talking about using the Rev-built application to start another application and maximize the other application's window, I'm not aware of a way to do that directly using Transcript. I know you can do it in a roundabout way, using a WinHelp file with a suitable "EF" macro to start the other app and use the "SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED" display-state setting in the macro to maximize the other app's window, but that is, of course, not the straightforward way you might be asking about (if you're even talking about this at all). If you are trying to do this second thing, hopefully someone else will write in on that and let you know how to do it directly from within the Rev-built application (I would like to know that myself). Good luck! Tommy Simmons Employment Law Advisory Network, Inc. www.employmentlawadvisors.com
P.S. FWIW, if you want to know about how to do it using a WinHelp file, just let me know. The cool thing about using WinHelp for that is you can design it as a bare-bones window, w/o the standard menus and buttons, making it appear to be just another window in your application, and use it to open multiple files with the same application, none of which have to be closed before the others can open. Unfortunately, that "helper file" requires the standard WinHelp engine on Windows and thus doesn't translate directly to Mac or Unix. :-( Anyway, I'll be looking forward to hearing from a Transcript guru on this. ----- Original Message ----- From: Gene Kennedy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Rev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, December 14, 2001 8:30 AM Subject: Maximize an Application Window > Is there a straightforward way to maximize a Windows-built application > from code? > I have read the Transcript documents but can't find what I'm looking > for.
