    Show database window

    I have a database, that on opening opens a form.



    the form on opening runs a macro that does all operations including closing the the form at end of its operations.

    i have changed the startup procedure to not show the database window on opening.

    How do i change this startup procedure to show the database window, i want to make some changes in it..is it possible or i have started a bad loop?!

    can you still enter design view on your form?

    If so create a new command button and add the following code

    Code:
    docmd.selectobject actable, "yourtable", true
    If i recall correctly that should show your database window

    umm..no cant see any design view since i close the form through the form itself on opening

    somehow..when i opened the database through 'file' it opened the database window..the one that was not opening through clicking on the icon directly..so i am saved for now..thanks for your help though!

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
