Hi - I have a question about a template called "issues" that I downloaded.
It's one of the already designed database you can pull off the microsoft
website. Anyway, I've modified it to fit my needs, and my problem is this:
How do I get the main form to NOT open up right away? I want the database to
open to a switchboard from which users can choose different options. But
instead it opens to the main form? and the customer service reps are typing
over each others info.........
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Tammy
 
The "Startup" dialog box lets you specify which form opens. Select Tools,
then Startup...

As far as typing over each other, that should not happen. Access should
default to a multi-user environment and many users should be able to add a
new record without fear of interfering with each other. If there is some
kind of issue with that - you have other problems.
 
thanks Rick - that was exactly what I needed.
