Access general options in .mde file

[BadSikander]

Hello

I am working on a database and currently have some of the general options set specifically - e.g. windows in taskbar, cursor behaviour when entering a field, etc.

If I later distribute the database to other users as a .mde file, will those same option settings be retained for other users running the database on their own computers? Or would I have to find a way programatically to imitate what those options do instead?

Many thanks for any advice

Those options are set on the local machine.

So yes you would need to set them at start up.

If you set the options under Current Databse then it would affect anyone using your database. However, (to be on the safe side) also do it programmatically by creating the property.

Application.SetOption then.

Many thanks

What does this mean.

I think the poster means whether to use that route of setting the property (i.e. using Application.SetOption). If that's the case, then yes.

I see.

So I guess this thread is now finished.

Thanks.

Indeed, yes. I was just talking to myself really. Confirming how I would approach things based on your replies to me.

Thanks both.
