Hi, How do I programatically hide the "Properties Dialog" window (i.e the window that displays all the info about the selected form/control) when running my app?
 
In the "Other" tab of the properties box, set "Allow Design Changes" equal to "Design View Only".

You can only do this in the property dialog for the FORM, not any control on the form. You must select the form's properties. If you aren't sure how to do that, repost, and someone will surely walk you through it.

Rock ON!

Thanks a lot Kev. It's always the little things that are overlooked. Is this a new feature of Access 2000 or have I just never noticed it in previous versions?
 
It's a new feature that speeds development but can be a real pain in production if you forget to switch it off...
