[AccessD] Windows in Taskbar

Can't you also just uncheck the option for "display database window" in
the startup options?  I'm in AXP and it works there.  
 
If you do go the code route, I agree with Mark that you should be sure
to reset them to show on exit because this is a setting that will affect
any Access fiile they try to  use.

	Application.ShowWindowsInTaskbar = False
	 
	You may want to save the user's setting at startup to a global
variable or table, and set it back when they exit.
	 
	 
	For example, on startup
	 
	MyVariable = Application.ShowWindowsInTaskbar
	Application.ShowWindowsInTaskbar = False
	 
	 
	Then on your exiting code
	Application.ShowWindowsInTaskbar = MyVariable

		Hello Group, 

		Anyone know how to programmatically unselect the
"Windows in Taskbar" option.  I am trying to work around the bug that
shows the database window even if it is hidden when the user click one
of the windows in taskbar.  The fix is to uncheck this option on the
database, but I can not go to each client machine and do that.  My
development machine is A2K and I have some users with AXP that can now
get to the database window.  TIA.
