Single window on taskbar in Access 2000

[doulostheou]

Someone might have asked this question before, but I couldn't get the right combination of words to make it come up when searching the forum. Is there anyway to make my Access application run in one window on the taskbar like Access 97?

My user's have the perception of multiple apps running, when they see multiple windows on their taskbar. I would think there would have to be a way to change the behavior, but I don't know what it is.

Any help would be appreciated.

To hide the different open forms, reports, etc. on the Taskbar you have set the ShowWindowsinTaskbar to false...

Application.SetOption "ShowWindowsinTaskbar", False

OR

Go to Tools / Options, then the View tab and deselect 'Windows in Taskbar'

Public Function DisplayOpenWindowsInTaskbar()
On Error GoTo Err_DisplayOpenWindowsInTaskbar
 
    Application.SetOption "ShowWindowsinTaskbar", False
 
Exit_DisplayOpenWindowsInTaskbar:
    Exit Function
 
Err_DisplayOpenWindowsInTaskbar:
    If Err.Number = 2091 Then 'ShowWindowsinTaskbar is an invalid name Access 95/97 error]
        Exit Function
    Else
        MsgBox Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description
        Resume Exit_DisplayOpenWindowsInTaskbar
    End If
 
End Function
