windows in taskbar

A

Albert D.Kallal

For a2003, my startup code does a number of things, and one is taskbar
disable...


Here is my list:
'
Application.SetOption "ShowWindowsInTaskbar", False
Application.SetOption "Show Startup Dialog Box", False
Application.CommandBars.AdaptiveMenus = False
Application.SetOption "Themed Form Controls", True

Note the last one actually turns on "themes" in a2003 which I like....

Hi:

Thanks for the reference. Now i can customize a lot of general options. I
have another concerns.
1) Does customizing the general options affect the user's access application
options or it does affect only the database options when loaded. What I mean
is, If i customize the general options for my database, will other database
inherits it.

2) Where should i put the code. I believe it should be run before any Forms
is executed.

Thanks again.

1) These are Global Options, so setting them will affect how Access works on
that machine. They will affect every database. In some cases, they will
affect other MS Office applications. If this is a concern, you can set them
back when the application closes.

2) I always have a main form (a switchboard) that opens and never closes
until the application does. I put the code in the OnOpen event of this
form. (I also have this form start automatically via the StartUp options.)
Some people have a Splash screen that opens when the database opens and then
hides after a certain length of time. This is also a good place to put it.
