Hallo

I hope some one can give me an idea why does my database still show the
database window even do i switched it off under the startup. Its running
under access XP

Thank you

Forgive me if this is too elementary a question:
Is it possible that you're thinking of the entire Access window (around
the entire application) as the database window? In Access, the term
"database window" means the sort of "table of contents" window with tabs for
Tables, Queries, Forms, Reports, Macros, Modules...
 
Yes thats the one where you see the tables, queries... and i set it in
statrup to not show but it still does why

Two possibilities come to mind:

First one. Maybe this?

ACC2002: Database Window Is Displayed When You
Click the Application Icon Even Though You Turned Off
the "Display Database Window" Startup Option
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=313915

Second. If you are using the using the built-in Switchboard Manager,
the Switchboard Form's Open event probably has some code similar to this:

DoCmd.SelectObject acForm, "Switchboard", True
DoCmd.Minimize

This code will minimize the Database Window, however, it will override any
setting you have in the Startup Properties to hide the window. So find those
two lines of code in the form's code module and delete them. Please note
that you may have similar code elsewhere even if you do not use the SBM.
