MS Access Splash Screen

Is it possible that I can create a splash screen when an end user opens the database? Anyone? Anyone?

Choose from "Display Form/Page:" combo a relevant form to be displayed when mdb has been opened.

Attached is a small sample db with a splash screen from one of my apps. You can either click on a command button to continue and enter the db, or simply wait and after 7 seconds the db will open on its own.

Hope this helps! Good Luck!
