I want to start a database with a switchboard showing various users and have
them click their name to go to their own switchboard. I know how to set the
startup form but can't find the full screen start up setting. Also, can you
set each subsequent user's switchboard form to require a password to get the
form to open?
 
In the startup form's Activate event, put this code:

DoCmd.Maximize


As for password, you can write programming that will ask the user for a
password and then compare that to a password stored somewhere.
 
Attach the following code to the form's Activate event:

Private Sub Form_Activate()
DoCmd.Maximize
End Sub


As for the password item, you'll need to tell us more information about
where the password is stored, how it's stored, and how the form would know
whether a correct password has been entered for the person or not.
