How do I set an Access Database to open to a specific form within the DB?

I use this feature with other databases to enable users to employ a desktop shortcut to reach their report running view form. Since Access does not save each component of the DB as a file, it can be a bit cumbersome. But I know there is a property or "Open" command I have to set. Just can't remember where or how to set it...or maybe its not in Access 2000?

Thanks for any help....you guys are truly the best!

 
Go To the tools menu> the go to startup then go to display form Click the arrow down and then you can choose what for you want to open when access is started.

Or you can use a macro to open it by going to open form then define the name of the form then go down and put in maxamize and make sure you name the macro AUTOEXEC.
