Hi,

I'm making a database in Access 2007.
I had made a startform to easy find all the forms. In the options of Access
I have found the option to set this form as a startform so if I open the
database, you will see this startform with a couple of buttons.
Now I want to have this situation, but one step further. I want as a result
that if I open the database, this is opened like a program. So I don't want
to see the objects on the left and the tabpages on the top to edit the
database.
Is this possible to do, and if yes, how do I do this?

Thanks for responding.

To hide the navigation pane (left), go to:
Office button | Access Options | Current Database
and uncheck the box for:
Display Navigation Pane.

On the same screen, you can specify what ribbon/toolbars are permitted.
Alternatively, just use Ctrl+F1 to toggle the ribbon.
