How do I make my main Form to be autoloaded?? Just like when the access opens, it will go to the main form without click and select the from!! thanks for the help
 
with the database open go to tools>startup and select under Display Form/Page drop down box the form you want.

ts, I have a *.bmp named the same as my database, i.e., mydatabase.bmp and mydatabase.mdb, residing in the same folder.

This works fairly well to stop the Access logo before the application starts.

However, there is still a flash when my main form opens and maximizes.

I have tried an autoexec macro that is basically
echo off
load form
echo on
and I tried coding the same thing.

It doesn't really stop the flashing.

Any ideas as how to keep the screen completely blank till your form opens?
