Jim,

The URL that Stuart posted worked perfectly. It never would have occurred
to me that all you have to do is change the shortcut by adding an argument
to effectively hijack the program. I don't know why it never occurred to
me, since I have often created shortcuts for Access to pass arguments like
"decompile". But in this case I didn't think of it.
