CLOSE MS ACCESS APP AFTER 'X' MINUTES OF INACTIVITY

[Jim Bonacorda]

I have a user requirement that states that my application
will close if it is idle for 'x' minutes. Has anyone
created coded to perform this?

On the main forms in use, set the Timer with an Event
Procedure
"docmd.quit"

The timer runs in seconds but must be multiplied by 000,
thus 5 seconds is 5000 - 1 hour is 3600000

I often use this to prevent files being locked overnight,
and thus not backed up, because a user has stayed logged
in and gone home.
