Remove Access Window

[trsands]

Need urgent help with APPLICATION look

I have written an application in Access 2002/VBA when I run it the form I put in the startup options correctly loads BUT everything still runs in an ACCESS window including menus and tools bars. I can eliminate most of it by defaulting to a blank menu. But the app still runs in the "window". I want the app to have the standalone look. I have to demo this in a few hours so pleez help

Well it sounds like you're only issue at this point is that the application looks like a window within a window. To change this, go into the properties of every form and disable Min/Max and close buttons. You'll still have a double widow bar at the top, but it'll simply look like a custom heading for each form. If navigating the db is a problem without the min.max/close buttons, add custom buttons to the forms to help.
