My 2003 form will not open in 2007

[bill1575]

My company has an access 2003 database application complete with multiple
forms, reports, etc, which we have used for several years. We recently
purchased a couple of new workstation which have access 2007 installed. When
I start our 2003 database, from one of these workstations, the startup form
appears momentarily then disappears. I can open the startup form in design
view but not in form view, other forms will open in form view when selected
from the nav window. I have searched help topics, looked into security
setting, researched differences between 2003 and 2007 but unable to find a
reason for this or a solution. Help!

hi
at least you've narrowed the search down to the startup form. still without
seeing what's in that form, i dont think anyone will be able to help you

I may have discovered a solution. There is a macro that runs at startup
setting several controls on the form. The macro ran with the Open Event. I
moved this to the Activate Event, and now it appears to work. Still testing,
and curious why this would make any difference.
