    Opening a table


    Is it possible to open an individual table automatically when you open the access file, I know you can do it for a form.

    yes there is an Open Table command but it is not a choice in the feature set of the db options like they offer for forms....

    create a macro to do it and name it: AutoExec

    in creating the macro select 'All Actions' up in the ribbon and then in the first and only line enter: OpenTable
    the next line below it will offer you a drop down to select your table
    save and close db - will run when db opens.

    Sorry, senior moment...... I have created a macro and it now does what I wanted. Thanks
