Access application framework

[John O'Conner]

Do all deployed Access applications run inside the application frame of
Access itself? Do the various forms of an application run within access
for deployed apps. If so, how does one tell access which form should
start the application?

Gracias,
John O'Conner

Access itself?

Not all, but most. You can create (for example) a Visual Basic program
which uses a JET database (which can be created using Access) as the
backend; or you can put an Access database onto a web server and use
ASP to display and edit data in it.

Do the various forms of an application run within access
for deployed apps.

Generally. Again, not universal but typical.

If so, how does one tell access which form should
start the application?

One of the options on Tools... Startup allows you to specify one form
to be automatically opened when you open the database.
