Gustav, That works great, thanks. I was using opencurrentdatabase instead of opendatabase. You da man! John W.

What strange thing causes this switchboard to open? I don't know of other options than either to open it from an autoexec macro or setting it to open in the start options. Anyway, this works for me: <code> Dim wks As DAO.Workspace Dim dbs As DAO.Database Dim fld As DAO.Field Set wks = DBEngine(0) Set dbs = wks.OpenDatabase("x:\path\any.mdb") Debug.Print dbs.QueryDefs.Count For Each fld In dbs.QueryDefs(0).Fields Debug.Print fld.Type, fld.Name Next dbs.Close wks.Close Set fld = Nothing Set dbs = Nothing Set wks = Nothing </code> Neither the startup form or the autoexec macro is launched by this. /gustav _______________________________________________ AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
