Re: on click error

There are various approaches for this.

What I personally do put a text file on the desktop, and include a line for each of the databases I'm working on at the moment. Double-click the file to open in Notepad. Copy the appropriate line. Paste into the command prompt, holding down Shift to avoid the startup code.

Since I'm using 5 versions of Access, I can create the appropriate line for each mdb/accdb.

you could always create a shortcut with that exact command in it. That
way you just doubleclickthe short cut everytime...

Tim

i had tried that, the shortcut on the start menu isnt a good place to
start. works better if you navigate to the exe and create a shortcut
from scratch.

works good. :)
