few basic questions in forms

[ashishprem]

Hi Ppl,
I have few questions in access forms.
1) I have a few forms in my access file. When a user opens the file the main forms pops up. When the user wants to go for design he need to press Shift Key and open the file. Any way to make the design mode password protected.

2) Suppose I make a new form by clicking form then new. I get some record kind of display like record no 1 displaying at the bottom. How can I make it a simple form.. I have seen it at many places but I dont know what form property makes it like that.

Thanks in advance for the answers.

Make an MDE file.

If you're talking about just wanting a window with nothing else on it, like selectors, captions, navigations, etc..., try experimenting with these properties in the property sheet:

**record selectors
**scroll bars
**navigation buttons
**caption
**control box
**min/max/close buttons

If that's not what you're asking, then I have no idea...
