Hi

You could try opening this 'compusory' form as part of the startup procedure with the 'Control Box' property (in Design Mode) set to No.

Provided you do not add any close buttons then you will not be able to close this form.

Let me explain a little about my project.
I have a form of which all queries, all other forms and tables relied on that particular form, you cannot open Query or any form without refering to the parameter value from that form.
Am tired of being called for assistance of my users simple because that form has been closed and no other programme is running, just imagine how laze they are!
I want this form to remain opened no matter what, so longas the DB is opened!
How could this be done?
Please help!!!!
