    How to open 2-Form simultaneously?


    Tried creating Macro, choose “OpenForm” & selected second form to simultaneously open. Tried saving Macro as AUTOEC. Any useful advice would be appreciated!

    If can't call both in AutoExec, first form can have code to open second form.

    And??? Error message? Second Form doesn't open?

    If your Macro is actually named 'AUTOEC' that would explain why the Second Form doesn't open; the Macro must be named AutoExec for it to execute when the Database, itself, opens.

    The closest to you can come to 'simultaneously' opening two Forms can be done by

    Opening one form using the Display Form option (Options - Current Database - Display Form) and open the second Form using the AutoExec Macro.
