Ermmm, somehow, I think when setting the "startup" options, I have turned off all the standard toolbars, and unfortunately don't have a back up (I know, not very bright - Believe me I'm slapping myself!) Is there any way I can reactivate them, so that I can finish the work I was doing, and make the database operational!!

Any assistance on this is GREATLY appreciated!

press and hold the startup key while opening (or loggin in) the database and then click on the tools and then startup and you should be able to get stuff back...

You can change these properties from code from another database ie.
Just put the path and name of your db in OpenCurrentDatabase
command.

Sub mChangeProperties()
Dim AppMaster
Set AppMaster = New Access.Application
AppMaster.OpenCurrentDatabase ("Database Path\databasename.mdb")



SetProperty "StartupShowDBWindow", dbBoolean, True
SetProperty "AllowFullMenus", dbBoolean, True
SetProperty "AllowShortcutMenus", dbBoolean, True
SetProperty "AllowToolbarChanges", dbBoolean, True
SetProperty "AllowBreakIntoCode", dbBoolean, True
SetProperty "AllowSpecialKeys", dbBoolean, True

End sub

 
Thanks All! - you saved my short and curlies..
