What is the form name of the Database Window?

[Adam Thwaites]

I have to following code to hide the Database Window when I press the H key,
but without the name Access has given to the Database Window I can't shift
focus to it automatically to hide it. Can anyone help me out?

Also how could I have the code working on a Ctrl+x keypress?

Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode = vbKeyH Then
DoCmd.SelectObject acForm, ,True
CommandBars("Menu Bar").Controls("Window"). _
Controls("Hide"). _
accDoDefaultAction
Forms!frm_Main.SetFocus
End If
End Sub

After your SelectObject line, try:
RunCommand acCmdWindowHide

Works like a charm, thanks.

Do you know how to do a KeyDown event for more than one keys?
ie Ctrl+K

In theory, KeyCode should be 75 and Shift 2.
