Is it possible to prevent Microsoft Access from showing in the Windows Start Bar.

ie
When opening a form, the start bar shows;

Microsoft Access - [Whatever Form]

What do you mean by the Start Bar/Menu

The start menu is the menu in windows at the bottom named start. Is this what you mean?

Or is it something in access itself. Please explain a little further.

Yes Scott

This is the one I mean:-

The start menu is the menu in windows at the bottom named start.

Any help appreciated.

Right click on the task bar and select properties. Select Auto-hide the task bar from the listed options. This should hide the windows task bar whenever you are working in another application.

Under Tools/Options, you will find the option that stops Access from creating an entry in the task bar for every form.

Thanks all.

I really neded to do this thru VBA but am still playing with it.
