Executable Database

[matpj]

I would like to know - in a 'for dummies' style, how to make an executable file of my database, so that when the user runs it, the switchboard just comes up straight away.

any ideas?

make a macro and call it autoexec then when you run access database, access will run all the commands in the macro, so if you only want a form to load you can just use openForm and enter the name of the form

Or you could go to Tools - StartUp and set the display form to the from you want the user to see at startup.
