[AccessD] Hide Database Window and still use OutputTo command

Can you tell us what the error message is. I'm using Access97 Sp2 and I
routinely have the database window hidden, in the same way as you describe,
but I have no problems creating Snapshot reports from both MDB and MDE
files.

So I'm not sure what known bug Doris is referring to.
