Fuction Key Routine

[jquest]

Hello Again;

Is it possible to leave a database running at all times and be able to press
F12 (or some other single key) that could call up a specific form regardless
of which other form may be open at that time?

TIA

To elaborate on Tom's reply: create a new macro, click on the macro
names button so that the macro name column is displayed, enter {F12} in
that column, select Open form as the action and enter the name of your
form int he Form name field. Save your macro and call it AutoKeys.

Thank You;

That works just the way I want it to.
I have received help from this newsgroup before. I hope I will be able to
return the favors.

An alternative method is to right click a selected Form, Report, etc.
and select Create Shortcut... to put a shortcut on your desktop. If
the database is open and minimized it will restore it and open the
Form, Report, etc.
