Startup Options

Hi; can anyone suggest the best way to incorporate some kind of startup
procedure that's run whenever someone connects to (i.e. opens) my db. I'm
familiar with the startup form, however it just seems "messy" to have to
define a startup form, then disable the SHIFT bypass, then put some code in
the form that effectively cancels the form and does whatever else I want to
have done. Does Access have some kind of event I could use that's similar to
MS-Excel's Workbook_Open event? ... I guess I shouldn't complain since I've
found a working solution, but methinks it's just a little too messy to be
the only way of accomplishing this.

Thx
HWH

There is no application event.

Use a macro named AutoExec, or the Open event of the startup form.
