If you want to open it in code then use
DoCmd.OpenForm frmName, acNormal, , , , acHidden
otherwise in Tools>Startup choose the form to open at startup. Either in the
forms OnOpen event of as the default property, set Visible=False

I have heard about invisible form but how does it work? Being invisible
and auto-opening that is.
Thanks

I want to implement an auto reminder like outlook that pops up at the
specified time. I think there would be some sort of timer that will check when an appointment is due and pop-up the reminder if needed. The question is where should I implement the timer code so that it runs regardless
of if any specific form is open or not. If I implement it in a specific form
then it is possible that the user may not have the form open and the
reminder may not pop-up when needed.
Thanks
