In Access 2000, Win NT, Citrix, we have each user opening the front end mdb
in their own folder, and linnking to the back end. I've noticed that a user
can get more than one instance open at a time if they are not careful.
Is there a way to have an instance of Access check to see whether there is
another one already open for this user, and if so, simply to maximize the
window of the already running instance?
Thanks

I don't know if this will work in Terminal Services or Citrix, but here is
an example you can try. http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0041.htm

Many thanks,
The commonsense approach of opening the frontend exclusively was I had not
thought of.
