Thanks Charlotte, this one is going in my framework. Set up an autoexec macro for Ctl-F11 to call this function and you now have a "hot key" that hides the database window. John W.

Are you trying to make sure it's hidden even when someone pressed F11, or are you just looking for a technique to hide it again when you want to? The ultimate way to make sure it stays hidden is to distribute a runtime version of the application. There is NO access to the database window. If you just want to hide it again for your own use, here's a routine that will do it. Public Function HideDBWindow() On Error GoTo HideDBWindow_err ' select a tab in the Database Window DoCmd.SelectObject acTable, , True ' Hide the database window DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdWindowHide HideDBWindow_exit: Exit Function HideDBWindow_err: MsgBox Err.Description & " (#" & Err & ")" Resume HideDBWindow_exit End Function Charlotte Foust -----Original Message----- From: Darren DICK [mailto:d.dick at uws.edu.au] Sent: Thursday, December 18, 2003 6:24 PM To: AccessD List Subject: [AccessD] A2K What's the Opposite F11? Hello all When the dB window is hidden - pressing F11 will make it visible What do I do to make it IN-visible once it is visible? EG ALT F11 toggles the VBE window visible or not is there something similar that I can toggle the dB Window??
