Hi Chris,
Yes, that's exactly what I'm after. Can it be done wholly from the command line - i.e. using command line parameters?
No, not from command line.
There is a a simple command in Basic, which will start the form you want:
SUB FormOpen
ThisDatabaseDocument.FormDocuments.getByName("MyForm").open
END SUB
Put this macro in you database file.
Start it through
Tools → Customize → Open Document
If macros are enabled and you open the Base file you will first see the
whole Base content (tables, queries …) and then the form will start
directly.
Might be the form isn't positioned right. I set this always as a maximized window. I always set the content to a zoom level where all content of the form is directly available.
If you want to have a look how this works you could download this database: https://www.familiegrosskopf.de/robert/lo_hb_dev/XRechnung_V2502_028.odb
Enable macros and start the file. The start form will appear.
