Who keeps hiding my reports

Client = Access 2000 SP3 (data project) (Windows 2000 SP4)
Server = SQL Server 2000 SP3a

My reports don't show up in the windows task bar when they have been opened.

I have just two reports, when either is opened you can view it ok, but its
not in the Windows task bar, so when you move to another app and do some
stuff, it can look as though you have no reports open.
Alt-Tab through your open apps, and the reports are NOT visible.

The only way to get back to the report, is to use the Window menu on the
Access Menu Bar.

I have tried importing the objects into new .adps, which can fix a lot of
problems, but not this one as the reports still dont show up.

Any suggestions? Is there any code I oculd use? Its strange, as I've not
come across this before but can't think what I've done to cause this.

Thanks.

Duane, thanks for the response.

I checked and it was ticked, but still the report was hidden, so I unticked
the option, then re-ticked it, clicked apply and my report appeared, yay!

But when I re-opened the report, it vanished again, so I've tried to use vba
on the onOpen even of the report, I've tried both:

Application.SetOption "Use taskbar for each document", True

Application.SetOption "Windows in Taskbar", True

But I get the error:

"2091 'Use taskbar for each document' is an invalid name"
OR
"2091 'Windows in Taskbar' is an invalid name"

Any suggestions? I shall google to see if I can find any more info, thanks.
 
OK, the help documentation with Access 2000 is incorrect, found it updated in
MS site, the command is:

Application.SetOption "ShowWindowsInTaskbar", True

Im happy again :)

Many thanks for the suggestion!
