You can do that, but when you click on one of the windows in the taskbar,
the database window reappears, even if you have it unchecked.  I alos agree
that it is something I will need to turn off.

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.
