It's nitty gritty, but it does the job:

On Error Resume Next
Dim db As Database
Dim tblTemp As TableDef
Dim fld As Field
Set db = CurrentDb
For Each tblTemp In db.TableDefs
    For Each fld In tblTemp.Fields
        If fld.Properties("DisplayControl") <> 109 Then
            If Err = 0 Then
                fld.Properties("DisplayControl").Value = 109
            Else
                Err.Clear
            End If
        End If
    Next
Next
Set db = Nothing

McCool. If you have code that does that, I'd love to see it.

Here's a stretch but...
For people that like to use the added form designing capabilites of the
lookup property, once the table design and realtionships are complete you
could set the desired lookup properties. Design all of the forms for the
application. When the application design is complete you could run code that
iterates the table collection and eliminates all lookup properties in the
table design. This in essence would eliminate the corruption and performance
issues.

Eh?

There is also the issue of TableID limits, which I believe include all
the tables involved as lookups.
