Open Table on Startup

[lmnop7854]

Is there any way that anyone knows to have a table open on startup? I am not using a form, because the nature of this database is easier to use with a table. And I can't use Excel because I need reports out of the data.

Having said that, I have some users who may be partially Access-illiterate, and it would be easier to have them work on a table that opened for them. Any clues?

Not ideal, but how about opening a form in datasheet view? If it were linked to the table itself, the users would never know the difference.

Wrong idea for all the wrong reasons
If you intend to head for disaster, you most definitely should not offer tables to illiterate users
Create a form.
