Design Master automatically closes after startup

[Guest]

Hi,

I have a Design Master that when it opens it will close right away. I see
the Database View but it closes right away. Usually I see the database view
and a switchboard on startup, but now I only see the database view for a
split second. I haven't done anything with the switchboard before this
problem started. I noticed it started after I changed the Auto Tab property
to Yes on a field in a form. Right after I set it to Yes, the access file
closed. When I synchronize, the replicas also close immediately after
startup. Any help would be great.

Thank You,

What is a Design Master?

The database window can be hidden by clicking the checkbox in the Startup
dialog box. It can also be hidden at anytime via VBA or macros. Did anyone
change the setting or implement any code to do so?

Replication is intended only for data (tables), not other objects. You
should split the database and replicate *only* the backend.

There is a replication newsgroup, if you have more questions about
replication.

Unless I had the Spelling wrong the Design Master is the only place where you
can edit forms, tables, and other objects after you have created replicas.
No, one changed the setting or code. This problem started after I set the
Auto tab property of a field in a form to yes. After that the entire database
just closed. So now when I open the database, I only see the database view
for a split second then the entire database closes. Is there an option that
keeps the database open?

Thanks
