IDE opens at runtime

When I tested my app, the IDE opens.
At runtime I create a subform based on a selection made by the end user, the
end user adde or removee controls to or from the subform based on their own
personal requriments. when the code executes the IDE appears, even though
the source code can not be viewed because it is PWD protected, I want to
hide the IDE from the end user, or just close it when it is done. I suppose
I could try API, but I think that the developers of Access would have
provided a method for this.

You are taking an entirely wrong approach by performing
design time operations at runtime. Please refer back to my
response to your comments in another thread where I tried to
point out some more serious drawbacks to this approach.


If you explained what UI effect you are trying to provide to
users, perhaps someone will be able to offer some viable
alternatives.
 
I realized after my post what I was trying to do was ideal for design time
operation to simplify my development effort and by revising my approach
should be able to provide a .mde to te end user(which was my intial intent)
thank you for your time.
