Nothing happens when opening an Access DB

T

Tim

Please help,

I have an access DB (which was originally created from code, therfore it was
a Access95 format. I try to open it with Access 2003 and nothing happens.
The screen stays blank. It does prompt me for a password, which I provided.

I can't import or link tables in to another DB.
I've tried repairing the database
I've tried upgrading the database.
I've tried MS Access 2002 (XP)

Nothing seems to work. The database just doesn't open with MS access (The DB
isn't hidden as F11 doesn't work) Data is definately in the DB as my VB
program accesses it ok.

Please does anyone have any thoughts as to where to go from here.

TIA

Tim

Try holding the shift key when opening the database. There may be some code
that is hiding your db window.
