Is there a way to show both a splash and then the switchboard when my db
loads? It appears that Switchboard Manager makes me choose between the 2.
thanks for the assistance,
Andy
Set the Splash form to open with the database.
Tools + StartUp
Select the Splash form's name in the Display Form/Page drop-down.
Set the Splash form's Timer Interval to 5
Dim a Variable up in the form's code declarations section:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Dim dteStartTime as Date
Code the form's Open event
dteStartTime = Time()
Code the Timer event:
If DateDiff("s",dteStartTime,Time()) >=5 then
DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.Name
End If
Code the Splash Form's Closes event:
DoCmd.OpenForm "SwitchboardName"
The above should close the splash form in 5 seconds and open the
switchboard.
