Hiding Access

[CEH]

Here's another one on this subject... But can't seem to find the answer in the "Search" Currently I am using the "Call fSetAccessWindow(0)" method.... Well, all works fine until I start getting into reports. I have read in some post of other methods to hide Access. But I have yet to find any examples of the "easier way"..... Can anyone direct me to a post or link??
Thanks

Read up on Snapshot Viewer.

If you are using A2002 or later, the reports properties list pop up and modal, which should be set to yes.

In relation to calling the function, I have used "Call fSetAccessWindow(SW_SHOWMINIMIZED)" which I think equates to 2

I don't hide the access window anymore, as you loose the functionality of custom menus, amongst other things.

but how do you keep the form on screen. when i tried this, it minimized everything, including the form (which is set to modal/popup). my code works to hide/unhide Access window, but not with you MINIMIZE suggestion. Am I leaving something out?

do you mean hiding the database window? One way is:

Tools===>StartUp and disable the check box labelled "Display Database Window"
