I cannot get back into my DB in Design Mode

I have created my db and am pleased with it. My last step was to change the
controls on the DB so that it opened to a particular form and all of the
menus were hidden.

Now I'm stuck....and I cannot get back into my database to continue
designing and developing.

HELP!! How do I undo the "upon open" controls to get back to having full
design control in my DB.

Hold down SHIFT key when you double-click your *.mdb file to open in in MS
Access.

OK - I understand what is needed now. You have to hold down <SHIFT> and keep
holding down even through any errors or warnings that you get while the DB
opens.

Thanks folks.
