making the autoexc macro wait...

[Rowland]

I need the autoexec macro to wait until okay is pressed on
my databases license agreement, before executing, but
can't seem to figure it out, anyone know how to do this.

the reason I need it to wait is because the license
agreement comes up then you press okay, and the splash
screen comes up then the main form.

Now, if the "don't show me this agreement again" check box
is checked then some db property changing will take place
and the autoexec macro will no longer need to wait.

I am frusterated figureing this out, please help

Thanks in advance.

that would work, however....

when they click the don't show this message again check
box and press okay, it will change the database properties
to not have that form be the startup form anymore.

and because that form wouldn't be starting up then there
would be no way to execute that code that is embeded on
the okay button.

any other ideas.

Rowland,

Sorry, I thought you had already covered this scenario yourself in the
original post. All you need to do is put a Condition in the macros to
run it from the AutoExec if the "don't show again" has been ticked. I
can't be more specific at this stage because I don't know where and
how you are storing the information as to whether they have selected
"don't show again".
