Losing functionality

[lennyBaby]

I am building a database for a client that tracks construction drawings. The client came today to check on progress. Just before he came, I changed the start-up properties to hide the database window, menus etc so it would look more like the finished product.

Problem was, I lost alot of the functionality and had to change it back to demonstrate . Is this common and can anyone explain why? much appreciated
