Missing macro prevents Access 2000 from loading

B

Under Tools > Startup I checked boxes to disable menu and
tool bars when my initial form loads. The Startup is also
configured to load only the initial form at startup.
I was trying to get back my menus and toolbars and
inadvertantly made a reference in the form to a macro
called 'default' that doesn't exist.
Now, whenever I try to open the database I receive the
message <mydatabase> "....can't find the macro 'default'".

Since there are no toolbars and no menu options I am left
with nothing and no way to open the database to make
repairs.
Anyone have any ideas?
Email responses would be best. Thanks in advance,
Bob

Hold down the SHIFT key while opening to bypass the startup. If you
have created an AllowBypassKey property and set it to False this won't
work - you'll need to set it back to True (and the instructions to do
so are available for an exorbitant fee... said:

Done, but this request is considered impolite. If it's worth my time
as a volunteer to connect to the newsgroup and answer questions, it
should be worth your time to come back to the newsgroup for answers;
and someone else might have a similar question and be able to benefit
from the reply.
