Changing the title bar text in Access

J

John Ortt

Is it possible to change the title bar text in Access where it says
"Microsoft Access - [DatabaseName:Database]" to give the path and name of
the database (or similar). Also, is it possible to keep this as a prefix
when you open forms etc..

This would help me greatly as we have a lot of database copies (weekly
backups) and as I have to switch between them it can be difficult to
remember which is from which folder.

Example
----------

Instead of:
Microsoft Access - [Staff : Database]
Microsoft Access - [StaffMember : Form]

I want:
C:\MyFolder\Database\Staff - [Staff : Database]
C:\MyFolder\Database\Staff - [StaffMember : Form]


Thanks,

John

You can use Tools/Startup and use the Application Title and Application Icon
options.

Hope this helps
