Access splash screen

Is there a way to replace Access splash screen with a different one without
having the program to crash?

Hi Khalil,

I believe if you place a bitmap file of your choice, with the name of the
database into the same folder as your .mdb file, that it will display this
file upon startup. For example, if your database is named "MyApp.mdb" then
name the bitmap file "MyApp.bmp". If you basically want to hide the splash
screen, then use a one-pixel bitmap file.

Thanks Tom.
What pixcel bitmap might be considered "normal"? I am asking this because of
the file size, Is it of any importance and might cause problems if it is
large?
