[AccessD] Hide Database Window and still use OutputTo command

We do the same thing in our apps.  We do generally use the runtime
switch in our shortcuts for our clients, but that is primarily because
we install the 97 runtime files and want to be sure we have control of
the situation.  On our development and testing machines, we aren't that
fussy.  I haven't run into this problem either.

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.
