Open Existing Database dialog box at startup

[dcornett63]

Can anyone tell me how to clear the history on the Open Existing Database
dialog box that pops up when you first open Access. I don't want to
inadvertently open the wrong database.

That list is kept somewhere in the Registry. Run regedit.exe and
search for one of the strings.

Alternatively create a shortcut to the desired db on your desktop.

Thanks Tom. The registry is exactly what I had in mind.
