    Return to the user interface (login)

    Idea: - When you leave the program running and do not move the mouse


    After a certain period, let it be two minutes, the open form will be closed and it will return to the user interface (login).

    in the form set the ON TIMER INTERVAL property to 60000 (60 seconds,aka 1 min, aka 60000 millisecs)
    then the mouse & keystrokes will reset the counter
    in ON CLOSE event, it should just show the menu behind it, or you can call the f.LOGIN

    Code:
    'form (module) level counter
    private  mlMins as long
    
    Private Sub Form_Timer()
    mlMins = mlMins + 1
    If mlMins = 2 Then DoCmd.Close
    End Sub
    
    
    Public Sub ResetTimer()
    Me.TimerInterval = 0
    Me.TimerInterval = 60000
    mlMins = 0
    End Sub
    
    
    Private Sub Detail_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    ResetTimer
    End Sub
    
    Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
    ResetTimer
    End Sub

    Or just don't close the form you want to return to in the first place. DoCmd.Close will close the active form and that changes as opened forms close. Best to refer to the object by name if you can. I'd do something like
    Code:
    Private Sub Form_Timer()
    Dim frm As Form
    
    mlMins = mlMins + 1
    If mlMins = 2 Then
        For Each frm In Forms
            If CurrentProject.AllForms(frm.Name).IsLoaded And frm.Name <> "form1" Then
                DoCmd.Close acForm, frm.Name
            End If
        Next
    'DoCmd.OpenForm "Form1", acNormal
    End If
    Change <> "form1" to the name of the form you'd want to leave open. If it happens that it's not open, it won't matter because it isn't loaded.
    
    End Sub
    EDIT - I gather that you don't use Option Explicit or Option Compare in any of your databases because neither is used in the one you posted.
