I've been looking for a startup switch to run access in a stealth mode where
you don't see the application running. Is there such a swithc or is there a
technique using the application object visible property?
 
You can use the API

this may do what you want

http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0019.htm

be careful, you might hide the application and an error occurs, and you
cannot see the error, this could cause you a lot of trouble with debugging
etc, I would consider hiding the application at a very late stage of the
development, make sure you can first, but actually hide the application near
to release and not straight away.
 
I think that you meen the code
docmd.RunCommand acCmdWindowHide

In that case you should also disable the F11 key, that will bring the data
base back in front
 
You should create a macro named autokeys
Open the macro, in the macro name box write {F11} and dont put anything in
the action.

you can use this macro to create short cuts
