Initialy hide form

[hansaplast]

Hi,

I want to initialy hide a form in Access .
I do not mean:
DoCmd.OpenForm "MyForm", WindowMode:=acHidden

Is it possible to do this at "Form_Open"?
Me.Visible = False
at Form_Open doesn't work.

Appreciate Any help.
Thanks,

The easiest way for me to do is to do the ff:

1. docmd.openform "MyForm"
2. In the Form_Load module of the MyForm form, add the ff:
me.visible = false.

'What this does is it legally loads the form in its entirety with all the functions and procedures you write for it and then hides it.

I Cannot use the DoCmd function because this is the initial form Access loads.

When I do:

Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.Visible = False
End Sub

After opening the Form (Dubbleclick on it in Access Forms), it stays visible.

So I guess this is not what I want
Thanks, anyway

Why not open the form in desing mode and set the form visible property to false. Then when it opens it will not be visible by default. Then set it to visible in code when necessary.
