Hide Database Window Problems 1

[rubertoga]

Hi,
I have a front end database that attaches to the back end. When the front end loads I do not want to display the database window. In the start up for the front end I have unticked the Display Database Window and Use Access Special Keys check boxes and for most users when the database loads they do not see the database window. However, there are several users who still see the database window.

What could the problem be and is there a way to overcome it?

Thanks

How are the users starting the database?
Do they use a desktop shortcut?

We use a batch file that copies the front end to the users c drive and a short cut that is saved to their windows start up menu that points to the front end on the c drive.

so yes desktop shortcut =)

Then I can't imagine why this is happening. If they were re-selecting the application from the Access file menu then they might see the db window.

As a workround this code will hide the window and you could run it on startup.

DoCmd.SelectObject acTable, , True
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdWindowHide
