[AccessD] A2003 Tab Control

That makes sense. I will make sure I turn it back on when they close the
dB. Most users probably wouldn't notice at all, few other databases
around (in Access anyway). But setting it back is a good idea. Thanks.

I agree with Brett, if your apps are working in an environment where
your
users are going to be aware of what's happening and be concerned about
it. 
 
If not - the options are all yours!

If I may be so bold...
 
Automatically changing another user's global settings to suit your
application's needs is considered by many (like myself) to be very
intrusive, and generally a poor practice.
 
However, there are valid reasons for needing to do this (I think you may
have touched upon one).  In this case, I would strongly suggest keeping
track of the user's original settings when your app launches and
restoring them when it closes.
 
Otherwise, be prepared for the confused users asking you why their other
Access apps look "different" since they ran yours.
