How to remotely open MDB file with autoexec? 1

Hi All,

I'm developing a MS Access 2003 database that opens up other MDBs and shows their properties, tables, fields, queries etc. This all worked quite well until I used it to open a database that had a form set as a startup form, and when the database opened it opend up the form.

So my question is, does anyone know of a way to open up such a database file programatically whilst suppressing any autoexec functions. Or to put it another way, is there a VBA equivalent of holding down the Shift key?
