I have inherited an Access project that acts as a front-end to an SQL 2000
database. It's contained in an ADP file, but when I run it all I get is the
front-end. Can anyone tell me if there is I way I can get to the code and
database tables/views etc... behind?
 
Hi,
you have to connect it to database, then you get tables/views. Look at menu
File-connection
 
Thanks Alex. I have it connected to the database, but I see none of the usual
Access menus - just a custom toolbar for the front-end. Is there a shortcut
key or something that will return me to an Access view of the project?
 
You can hold SHIFT down while you click the app open. That will open without
running anything. You should then have your normal menus.
 
Thanks Dennis! That worked.
