I am creating a very simple Access DB for a video production company. They
want to set up a system so that users can enter their information at the
event, instead of filling out a paper form, in order to avoid errors. I can
create forms in Access, Front Page, or InfoPath (I'm most proficient in
Access however) but I need a way that I can extract the form from the program
- Essentially, I don't want the standard " File, Edit, View, etc" menu to be
there. As of now, the company doesn't have the server capabilities to run an
ASP setup, though if absolutely necessary this could change, but regardless,
the data that is entered by our users should fill back to our Access DB. I
need help with this ASAP, thanks!
 
Access forms cannot run outside of Access. You can remove the various menu
bars, but you still need Access to host the form.

http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0019.htm at "The Access Web" shows how you
can actually hide the Access window. If you do decide to go that route, make
sure you heed the warning!
