2007 StartUp Properties
Back in the days of Access 2003 and before, Access supported the creation and
management of the following custom properties: "StartupShowDBWindow" "StartupShowStatusBar" "AllowBuiltinToolbars" "AllowFullMenus" "AllowBreakIntoCode" "AllowSpecialKeys" "AllowBypassKey" My question is, what are the Access 2007 equivalents to these? I've heard that some have dropped off, a couple added, etc. etc. Yet I have not a found a single place devoted to all of the Access 2007 programmable StartUp properties. Can anyone help me with a resource which explains all of the nuances of these properties for Access 2007? |

2007 StartUp Properties
Access 2007 can work with mdb files in 2000, 2002/3 formats. It respects
those properties and behaves accordingly (e.g. hiding the NavPane of you hide the DB window.) There are some additional properties that did no apply in previous versions, such as AllowDatasheetSchema. I don't have a complete list of them, but some key ones are listed in this article: Prevent Access 2007 users modifying existing databases at: http://allenbrowne.com/ser-69.html If you want to examine the names of the properties for yourself, you can ask it to list the properties of the db. Some properties don't exist until you create them, so you might need to do this in a database where you can actually set non-default values for the various properties so you can actually see them. The article above has a ShowProps() function that will enumerate the properties of an object for you. -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.
