desktop shortcuts to different forms

[Amanda]

I wanted to create Desktop shortcuts that will open different forms in the
same Access database. Currently I use the Startup options to open the
database to a default form.

Also, we currently use Office Pro 2003, but will be upgrading to 2007 in the
near future- will this make a difference in the options that are available to
do this?

Thanks, Amanda

You could have different FrontEnd databases and have different forms in the
startup for each version.

don't know about 2007, but the easiest way is to drag and drop your
form's icon from the MDB to the desktop.

Just tried this with Acc2000. That is so cool!

Wow, that's fantastic that it is that simple. That's the way things should
work!

Thanks a bunch, Amanda
