in Microsoft Access, how to make a form to pop-up on the screan automatic everytime i open the file?

Question

do you know what i mean? just like when i open my Access file, the first thing that will appear on the screan is my Main Menu Form. how can i do that?

Answer 1

Since you already have a Main Menu form, you really don't need to bother with a Switchboard.

Just go to Tools (on the Menu Bar) and select Startup. In the Startuop Dialog Box is a Combo Box labeled "Display Form/Page" - use that to select your Main Menu form.

That's all there is to it. Simple, huh?

(It also has other options that you may or may not want to use)

Answer 2

In Access, click on the Help Tab and read all about "Switchboard".
