[AccessD] Initial Settings Used to be Changing Table Names

Max,

Some times you have to create the property, here is the code MS provided 
(I've had it so long I think it was MS)

Function ChangeProperty(pstrPropName As String, pvarPropType As Variant, 
pvarPropValue As Variant) As Integer

  Dim dbs As Database
  Dim prp As Property
  Const conPropNotFoundError = 3270

  Set dbs = CurrentDb
  On Error GoTo Change_Err
  dbs.Properties(pstrPropName) = pvarPropValue
  ChangeProperty = True

Change_Bye:
  Exit Function

Change_Err:
  If Err = conPropNotFoundError Then  ' Property not found.
    Set prp = dbs.CreateProperty(pstrPropName, pvarPropType, pvarPropValue)
    dbs.Properties.Append prp
    Resume Next
  Else
    ' Unknown error.
    ChangeProperty = False
    Resume Change_Bye
  End If
End Function

Thanks Bill, but why is my code not pulling it out of the dbs properties?

I am obviously off at a tangent here.

By pass is I don't use autoexec macro so don't have to kill it.

Bob,

> The discussed Auto-Correct was at the top of the list.

I am trying to find out what the names of all these Initial Settings are so
that I can programmatically change them.
Below is some code I have run but it doesn't appear to have this one and
also, I cannot find the one that allows users to bypass the startup Autoexec
by holding down the shift key.

Anybody have some code to extract them please?
