how to finalise a database.

[Gareth Firth]

Hi. I'm new to the development of DB's etc but have developed one in work but i can't work out how to set it so that when a user opens it all they can see is the main menu form. I have manage to disable the ribbon and editing tool but the All Access Objects colom still shows on the right hand side and the form still loads as full screen and not at the size I designed to be.
where am I going wrong guys? :banghead:
Thanks in advance for any help.

file>options>current database:

1. Display form (chose your form)
2. Display Navigation Pane (untick)
3. Track name AutoCorrect info (untick)

If you want to get back into the design view, hold down shift when you open the database.

..if you don't want the tabbed version but the form size you designed, then set document window options to overlapping windows...
