Only my form

Dear all,
I want to see on my application the forms I have done but without the window
of Access. I don't know if it is posible. I set the start options so the
application only merge my forms but over the Access window.
Thanks .

It can be done, but there are issues with it particularly if you want a "normal"
app with multiple forms and reports. The only time I have done this is for
utility apps that have exactly one form.

Can you explain why you want this? Access is a mdi style application just like
Word, Excel, and many others and it is the format that makes the most sense for
an Access application.

It is because I have done an application for using a database by different
persons in a company, and the experience with Acces by the people in the
company is very low so they don't need to see the Acces window. In other
hand my applicatin is based in different forms accesed by a main form, and
with it you can done whatever you need (print reports, preview them, change
values, etc.) . The problem is that if I don't do that I know that they will
do things that I don't want as close application with the close button of
the Access window and it is more kindly visually without the Access window.

Thanks.

You can easily hide the db window (the thing that shows the objects) without
trying to hide the entire Access application window. The former is normal
(and expected) in Access apps distributed to users whereas the latter is the
one that is not generally recommended nor necessary.

What is wrong with closing the app with the "normal" close button (like
every other Windows app they use)?
