i have created a new utility DB that has only one form..when it opens I set the startup form "Main" and on the OnOpen event of this form I have some code to open another database and close this one...

this means that whenever i open this database, it opens, opens up the other one and this utility DB closes...and i cannot access it coz it always opens and closes automatically...how can I stop it from executing to be able to edit its VB code?!

Thanks, this is driving me mad !

Ray,

Have you tried to click once on the database file and then holding the shift key double click, this should open the database and not run the on open event.

Let me know if this work or not and i will try another way for you.
