i wish to have a small welcome form that apears above my popup form on startup with a click box that allows users to set it so that it doesnt show again any ideas how to do this??

Chris :D
 
Have a look at the sample Northwind DB that comes with Access
 
jack0999,
do you want the welcome form to appear after the popup form or before?
 
Ok.

Now I would normally have a field maybe in the "options" table that says "showwelcome"

Then the RecordSource of the welcome form will be the "options" table and the check box that says "Dont show this again" is link to the field "showwelcome"

On the OnOpen event of the startup form add this code

Code:
If Dlookup("showwelcome","Options") = True then
Docmd.OpenForm "mywelcomeform"
End if
