CurrentDb().Properties

[Dave]

This is a simple issue....almost embarrassed to post it,
but as I am somewhat new to Access...could use some help.

In a sample database I was reviewing (Northwinds), they
have a startup form that is is displayed when the database
is started. It has a checkbox that you can check if you
don't want this " splash screen" displayed again. I check
the box and sure enough, when you reopen the database it
is not there. My question is, what if you want it
displayed again?

I can see in the Startup module where it checks if
CurrentDb().Properties("StartupForm") = "Startup", but I'm
not sure how you access this property to reset it? I
looked at the database properties, but there is no
StartupForm property.

I know this is a simple issue...just can't find out how to
set the property back so that the splash screen is
redisplayed again.

Thanks,

Dave

With Northwind open, go to Tools, Startup, you'll see 'Display Form' is set
to none - just set that to Startup and that form will open on startup.
