Does anyone know of a good way to have a button that exits access.

The exit application button leaves access still open, i'd like a button that when clicked exits access.

Anyone got any ideas ?

Cheers

Andy
 
Take a look at the Application.Quit method.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thats great thank you.

I'm not too hot on VB, have got it working for a button, but i would really like to work from a switchboard option. There is an option for a switchboard option to "run code" it then asks for function name.

In the standard VBA editing screen i've created a new Function as follows

Function exitAccess()

Application.quit

End Function

and then in the switchboard when it asks for a function name have put in exitAccess


its not working, any ideas ?
 
Are you looking for a code that ask user to quit or not? If yes it is below.
Code:
Private Sub cmdExit_Click()
    On Error GoTo Err_cmdExit_Click
    Dim intResponse As Integer
    Dim strPrompt As String
    strPrompt = "Are you sure you want to Quit the Database?"
    intResponse = MsgBox(strPrompt, vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "My DB Name")
    If intResponse = vbYes Then    
        DoCmd.Quit
    Else
Exit_cmdExit_Click:
        Exit Sub
Err_cmdExit_Click:
        MsgBox err.Description
        Resume Exit_cmdExit_Click
    End If
End Sub
or a simple version...
Code:
Private Sub cmdExit_Click()
    If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to Quit the Database?" _
              , vbYesNo + vbQuestion, "My DB Name") = vbYes Then
        DoCmd.Quit
    End If
End Sub
