hyperlink to another database object

[teel73]

I have 2 databases (accdb). Both databases have a loading pop form. Also both databases include the following line of code when the loading form opens:

docmd.runcommand acCmdAppMinimize

This code works great when I open the databases individually. but my problem is that I have a label on the pop form in accdb 1 with its hyperlink address set to accdb 2 and the subaddress set to the macro name.

The hyperlink opens the database 2 just fine and it opens the loading form but it doesn't minimize the application window.

Is there something I should be doing with the target property?

I think you need be able to reference the 2nd database's application window, the code docmd.runcommand acCmdAppMinimize
I believe will always relate to the first database as that is the active application.
Try looking up hWndAccessApp and hWnd
I've never used this before, so can't really advise
