Hi I Have a Access DB with startup form but when I open with shift press it open winthout a utility screen and stuff. I think it have some kind of look and I want to workarround to make some changes....
 
Can you elaborate? I don't quite understand what you're looking for. Do you want to see what exactly is running at startup so you can change it?

OK This DB Have a start up screen with options etc...
I want to skip the startup then I press shift to skip the form and go directly to tables,queries etc tools..I have others DB
But this particular DB no are doing that...it go to Access without the tools to change tables etc..
 
I think the problem is that when PRprogrammer opens this particular database using the SHIFT to bypass the "switchboard" (or whatever the form is showing at start up), the "natural" Access environment (where it shows the tables, query, modules, etc) isn't showing up.

Is that right PR?

PR,
Is this an .mdE by any chance? Ie, the design buttons are greyed out, but you still can see the forms, etc, or you just see a total blank at startup?
