ive just finished creating my form database... and i want to make it to a mde file... thats not a problem ... but the thing is.. i want a "welcome" page before the form comes up... any ideas on how to do that?
 
I assume you already have a form set to appear when the DB opens!

Instead of this form being the intial form, create yourselve a new form (typically called frmSplash) and when you're happy with it's layout, set the timer value to something like 6000 (6 seconds) and in it's "Form_Close" event, close the form (
Code:
DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.Name
) and force your previous "initial" form to open! (
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "
Code:
frmInitialForm
Code:
", acNormal
)
