login form won't close

[Guest]

My startup form is a login form which obtains the userID. When entered, the
switchboard is supposed to open, but what happens instead is.

1. The switchboard opens then minimizes
2. The login form stays open

I need to have the switchboard become the current form and the login form to
close. What is the best way to do that?

On the OnClick event of the button that check if the password is correct write

DoCmd.OpenForm "Switch board form name"
DoCmd.Close acForm, "Login form name"

Check this link for an example
