Hopefully a simple question. When I work on a database I copy it and change the name (sort-of backup copy) Sometimes I forget which one is loaded. How do I confirm without closing the app?

Thanx for any reply. :(

Before Access 2010 it was currentDb.Name (still works in 2010).

Ctrl + G to get to the immediate (Debug) screen.

In the bottom half of the window type ...

Code:
Print currentProject.name
or
Print currentDb.name
