Hello,

I know that if you place a BMP that has the same name as your database in
it's startup location it will display this image instead of the default
access load screen. How can I make it display the image for a specific
period of time. As it is right now it flies by so fast you can't make it
out I would like to delay the database load for a couple of seconds?!

Thanks,

Daniel
 
Same problem here.

I added a form in my database with my logo and disclaimer as the startup
form. I used the timer event to make it go away after 4 seconds.

Rick,

Sorry for the ignorance, but could you explain how I can create such a timer
event?

Thanks,

Daniel
 
I am not on my computer with Access. A similar question was answered
earlier though. I will quote Lynn Trapp...

Mary-Ann,
Your form has 2 properties that you need to utilize to close your Welcome
Screen. They are the On Timer property and the Timer Interval property. In
the Timer event of the form add the following code:

DoCmd.Close

Then, set the Timer Interval to the appropriate amount of time you want to
leave the form open. 1000 = 1 second.
