OK, so I hide the Database window in "Startup", but even with everything disabled in "startup", you can click the program on the start bar and the db window will come back, allowing you to do whatever you want. How do I get rid of this, so the database window CANNOT be seen?
 
Check out this FAQ: faq181-1021

It should point you in the right direction. Maq [americanflag]

Even still, with all of this applied - when you open the database and the single form appears - on the bottom Start bar, you have two buttons - one for the form, and the other for the datbase window. If you click the db window one, you are in just like that....I think this is a new thing with Access 2000 or 2002 maybe?
 
Hmmm, I've never used Access 2000 or 2002 so I can't advise you there. I've never heard of that feature though.

Perhaps someone else here who works with those versions of Access can give some better advise. Maq [americanflag]

go to tools,options
and uncheck &quot;windows in taskbar&quot;
 
sweet! it worked - thanks
 
Does anyone know how to get this to happen automatically (meaning - unchecking &quot;windows in taskbar&quot;) on startup? I did this on mine, and it worked great - but when others open it from the network, theirs is not set the same way...
 
Application.SetOption &quot;ShowWindowsInTaskBar&quot;, False

add this code to the first form you open in the forms(on open) event procedure
