When Access first opens up, there is the splash form then the Access window. In my app (under development) I have a splash form and my own icon and these take over AFTER Access runs its splash. Does the Access splash always run, or is it that when you finish the application for distribution only the app's splash will run?
 
You can remove the splash screen by placing a image file (yourappName.bmp)
in the same dir.

This imagine will be used in place of the ms-access one. If you want no
image..then make a small 2x2 bmp image file!
 
I assume 'same dir' means same directory. Excuse my ignorance, but I'm at a loss as to where the 'same dir' is. Does that equate to "Microsoft Office folder on the C drive" or "when application is installed / distributed, the new folder-directory should have the image file"?

You put the image file in the same dir as the where the application is going
to be run.

You can do this for any mdb file or mde file you have.

So, simply the folder where your application is placed.

You quick try this now...and just grab any picture you have....(must be a
bmp) and drop it into the same folder as your application (must have same
name but with the .bmp extension).

Now trying running your application....

Thank you - it worked as soon as I changed the name of the bmp file to match the mdb file
