What VB Code Minimizes the Database Window

29
Hey everyone, what's up?

I would like to minimize the database window and open a form when the end user opens the database. Does anyone know how to do that? I suspect it would be in the global module? I'm sure its complex, I just don't know where to begin. Maybe if one of you guru's can point me to a reference or something.

Thanx in advance.

  1. Create a Macro.
  2. In the first line in the Action Column, enter Minimize.
  3. In the second line, enter OpenForm in the Action Column and specify any Parameters in Action Arguments below.
  4. Save the Macro and name it AutoExec.
  5. When the Database opens, the Database Window will become Minimized and the Form you specified will open.

This works !! I also found some other methods.
