Hi, Burt.
There are a couple of ways of avoiding the Access logo at startup.
1. If you run your database application as a run-time, then there will be
no Access logo on startup.
2. You could create a bitmap file as a splash screen for your application,
and Access will use that instead of the Access logo at start up. You will
need to name your bitmap file the same as your database file name and
install it in the same directory.
3. You could create an Access user profile.
Full details of all of these methods are explained in the online article,
"Create Personalized Splash Screens for Access." You can find the link to
this article, as well as links to several other online articles on Access
development on this Web page:
