Actually, I have a couple of issues.

The first is that I would like to make sure users cannot change the design of the application, but be able to just input data.

Secondly, I would like to create a shortcut on the desktop that takes the user directly to the main switchboard.

Suggestions / tips are greatly appreciated..

go to your startup options and it will basically give you all the options you need. shortcut? you can choose your own icon. i suggest creating one. i assume you know how to do a shortcut on a desktop. have fun.

I just opened access to show my tables, forms, etc, and then just clicked on my switch board from my forms tab and dragged it onto my desk top. this worked fine, if the icon is ok with you thats it.
