Access Error Message

I have a database which I built up from a Microsoft sample contacts
database. I deleted the "Dashboard" and all mentions of it. Now when I
open the database I get an error "The formname dashboard is misspelled or
refers to a form that does not exist."
How can I get rid of this nuisance? I cannot see any macro or code that
refers to dashboard!

Look in tools start up which is where the dashboard is probably the startup
form. If its Access 2007, click the windows globe, top left of the database,
select Access Options and you'll find the startup form designated in the
settings there.

Hope this helps???

Kindest Regards
