Startup Properties Settings
Changing the startup properties affects how the objects of
the Current Database will
be displayed. We want the Dashboard form to load and display first when the
application
is opened.
Click on the Office Button in the upper-left
to get the main pull-down menu, then select
Access Options button at the bottom, see screen-shot below.
The following screen will appear. Click Current
Database on the left frame, the following
information will appear in the right frame (window).
Click the drop-down arrow next to the Display
Form: drop-down list box and select Dashboard.
This will cause the Dashboard form to load automatically when the application
starts making it
more user friendly.
