Access database problem.

Heya Guys,

Help will be appreciated, i have an assignment to be handed up at 5.15 today :eek: and have made a stupid mistake last night.

Part of the assignment was to display a switchboard menu to the screen and hide back end (this is done by changing something in the startup option. Now the idea should be that you hide the background but you can get it back by going to windows and unhide.

When in the startup option i untick loads of boxes disabling menus and stuff and i badly need them back. If i press F11 i can get some access to the back end of the database but nothing else.

I need menus back, does anyone understand how to do this.

Cheers,
Nicky

Hold down shift when opening the mdb to disable the startup options.

amen

start access and hold the down the shift key at the same time
this should disbale the autostart macro
and allow you to get access to your startup options again allowing to retick what u need

if it doesn;t work repost
