Where is the setting to specify a procedure in a basic module to execute on
startup as in AC 2003?

..or create a macro named AutoExec just as in ac2003.
I understand that, but you used to be able to specify a procedure in a BAS
module. Is that gone?

I'm not aware of that ever having been possible. Are you sure you aren't
thinking of using an AutoExec macro to execute a RunCode action?

I'm not aware of any such setting in Access 2003, nor in earlier versions.
You can use an AutoExec macro to execute a RunCode action, or you can use a
startup form with code in its Open or Load event. Are you thinking of one
of those options?

I guess when prototyping/testing in Access, I am used to typing the first
procedure in a BAS module as Sub Main or Sub SubMain and stepping through
the debugger from there and I was working in a project module and wanted to
initialize a class module from there. I got it working by calling the
subMain from the startup form. Thanks and sorry for the bother..
