Hiding Forms

[Hilary]

Does anyone know of a method for hiding a form in mdb that
cannot be unhiden. I need to execute certain checks and
set various setting after a certain lenght of time so I
want to open a form with a timer. However, I do not want
the user to see or be able to unhide the form and make
changes to the code on that one form only. I do not want
to create mde file or set security but I do want to hide a
timer form from everyone (including me). If I need to work
on that form I will work on the Work in Progress database
and then hide the form before giving it to user. Can this
be done...

You need to hide the database window AND create a custom menu that does not
have access to the "Unhide" choice. You may also want to block the Shift Key
bypass. The code for doing that is available in the Security FAQ. You can
find a link to it on the Security page of my website.
