Debugging in a 'Start-up' mode

I have an ms access app that opens a login form when the user starts the app.
It seems that when the user logs on, data is not being written back to the
table from one of the forms.

Basically, the user selects from a dropdown to select the record, clicks a
checkbox (if needed), and clicks submit. A report opens. This is all fine.
When the report is closed, data is to be written to the table IFF the
checkbox is clicked. I am trying to debug the code by stepping through it,
but I can't get it to jump into the code unless I bypass the startup screen
(using the shift key) and run the form from the Forms object.

Any help?

Is the logon user level security, or some custom built solution?
but I can't get it to jump into the code unless I bypass the startup
screen
(using the shift key) and run the form from the Forms object.

Right, so are you saying you can't trace, or you can't by-pass the startup
screen?

If your using security, then when you enter your password, before you hit
ok, then hold down the shift key...

If it is user security, then logon, and create a blank new database, and
import everything..you not have the startup options....

The login in is just a form i created and is database driven.

I placed a 'Stop' where I wanted the code to break. I'll remove the command
when I deploy. It act as a permanent breakpoint.

Thank though.
