I have an access BD which has a front end stuck to it - it was designed by a friend. I now want to access the tables and data directly but since I'me new to access I can't find out how to open the mdb file without the form automatically coming up.

How to I bypass the front end and get directly to the tables and data?

Hi!

After you open the Db you should be able to hit the F11 key and the Db window will show up. You can also hold the shift key down when you open the app and it will bypass the start up options.
