Startup without startup

[Gargamil]

Guys,

I've been working on a DB for some time and now when it starts up it
immediately closes Access. Two things, any ideas? and how do I load access
without running the Startup page - which I believe has become corrupted.

can you open the Access software by itself? if so, try this:
1. open Access.
2. hold down the Shift key while clicking on the .mdb file you want to open.
if you have to enter a database password, hold down the Shift key while you
click OK.
holding down the Shift key while opening the database file will "bypass" the
Startup options that are set for that database (unless you previously
disabled the bypass option via code).
