Subject: [AccessD] Programmatically Hide the DATABASE Window


Hello everyone, again.  It's FRIDAY!

Pretty much got the menu bar working (one issue with the "menu Bar"'s
control box not showing up after being disabled then enabled...but
that's not the point here).

I want to hide the main database window (the one with the queries,
tables, forms, etc., to be exact) on startup, but not using the
Startup's checkbox, but through vb.  The DBA Archives dance around the
issue, but I can't find where it's addressed.  Is there a way to do this
through code or am I stuck with using the checkbox in the Startup menu?
I'm using Access97 in this app.

Thanks!
