Switchboard Form

[EFranklin]

When I create a database using a swithboard for the main menu, the
switchboard opens, however the database minimizes in the bottom left of
the monitor making it visible to users.

When I see professional databases this minimized object does not appear.
See the Norwind sample database that minimizes the db on open.

Any help?

Open the switchboard form in design view, and look at the code in the open
event for the form.

Just comment out the lines that select the form and minimize the database
window. Use Tools, startup to open with your form and hide the db window
instead.

hi,
on the tool bar goto tools>startup.
click hide database window.
this will hid the database from the user.
there are some other option there you might want to be
aware of.
you can unhide the db window by Windows>unhide>pick from
list
