[AccessD] Startup Module not Startup Form

Access doesn't use a Sub Main the way VB and other VBA shell
applications do.  You're stuck with a startup form if you don't want to
use a macro.

Is there a way, without using macros, to specify the startup procedure
to run, as opposed to the startup form to open? I haven't tried it yet,
because it's so unelegant, but if nothing else works I guess I could
perhaps create a startup form that's hidden and do what I need to do in
there -- yuk! If I have to, I'll use a macro, but I'd rather not have
to. In lots of other languages if a proc is called Main that's all you
need. Is there an Access equivalent?

This may be a stupid question, but in all my years of Access work I've
never needed to do this before.

A.
