Re: [AccessDevelopers] Starting a specific form when opening Access

Never mind.  I found it.   http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;177475   You just use the /cmd switch to pass in a value and then check the value of the Command function inside your startup form or autoexec macro.   Thanks, Toby ----- Original Message ----- From: Toby Bierly To: AccessDevelopers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, January 16, 2006 11:31 AM Subject: [AccessDevelopers] Starting a specific form when opening Access I have a backend database that I normally want a form basically saying "you shouldn't be in this database" with only a button to exit the database to show up.  I have this set as my startup form.  This works fine.   Now I want to make another form that will just update a couple tables and I can call with the Task Scheduler.   I know I've seen a way to open a specific form using the command line, but I can't seem to find it right now.   Can anyone save me some time searching for it?   Thanks, Toby Spam Not spam Forget previous vote Please zip all files prior to uploading to Files section.
