Hi All,
Is there a way that I can set the startup form to be invisible?
Many thanks,

Instead of a startup form, create a macro named AutoExec, with the OpenForm
action. In the lower pane of the macro design window, set the Window Mode to
Hidden.
Alternatively, use an unbound form as your startup form. In its Open event
procedure, use OpenForm to open another form hidden, run any initialization
code, and then Cancel this form's Open event (so that the initialization
code is unloaded from memory).

Thanks for taking the time to read my question and hopefully it will
be understandable.
I have a need to read a record in a table and place the information in
public variables that can be used in several forms and reports. Is
this an easy process and how would I do this.
I know how to read the data and place them in the variables but I
can't figure out how to automate this at startup.

Hi there,
I have a small app, that copies some files to the server for backup, as soon
as the user exits Windows.
I want this form to startup hidden, so for the user it is not visible and
he/she can't close it.
How do I do this?
thanx,
Alison

I'm a long-time VB6 programmer in a shop that is mostly moving to VB

I have 10 columns total. 3 of them are invisible. The rest are read-
only BoundFields, 3 of which are editable fields using
TemplateFields. Upon editing, I want to validate what the user enters
against one of those invisible columns. How do I accomplish this?
The code below that I attempted just returns an empty string when I
try to retrieve the invisible column data:
