Is it possible to develop an Access application and on execution only see the front form of the application and all Access windows are hidden?
The AutoExec macro does not hide the main Access window.
Can anyone help?
 
There are a number of ways to keep users out of what you don't want them to see, but let's start with the basic step: In the Tools menu, go to Startup. Uncheck the Display Database Window option.

(Hint: When you want to get into Access & see the database window, hold down the shift key as you open the database. This hint is why you may want to go further in protecting your database.)
 
Thanks Chris for your hint and I have tried it but the Access Menu Bar is still visible. Is there any way that an application can be executed and no Access screens, other than the application screens, are hidden?
Almost as if an '.exe' version of the database has been created
 
This is where I excel...lol...
I do this with my database...
email me at: randomblink@yahoo.com
And I will send you the information...
 
Hi Randonblink,
I have the same problem in hiding the bar, will you send me any sample dbs as well.
Very thankful to you.
