[AccessD] Specify Startup Form

[Jim Dettman]

Arthur,

 

  Sorry I missed this.

 

  I don’t use the lookup feature at all<g>, but any column properties belong in the BE.

 

Jim.

Thanks, Jim.

 

A follow-up question: For a long time, I have defined column-properties such as Lookup in the FE, but gradually shifted to defining them in the BE -- the principal reason being that when creating forms, queries and reports in the FE, I "inherit" all that information automatically, rather than having to specify it each time. Opinions, one way or the other?

 BE is where they count, but some will define them in the BE, then import to
the FE so when working with queries, you get the joins automatically.

I've forgotten how to do this. Can you remind me? (it's Access 10, if that
matters.
