Default Access 2007 database name disappears from Title Bar

Is there a way to keep the database file name in the Title Bar of the Access
2007 application window? When we first open the database it will appear, but
once a table or other object is opened, suddenly the database name disappears
and only Access 2007 appears. If we walk away for a moment the only way to
verify which database is currently active is to "open" and check what the
most recent is. This is for a classroom where we switch between multiple
copies of the same database (i.e., Sales #1, Sales #2, etc.)

I think if you assign an Application Name that will remain in the display.
From the Office Button, open Access Options. Choose Current Database in the
left pane, and you can set Application Name in the right pane. But if all
your applications are showing the same db, that might not help much. You
could have a menu form where you display the file name, or put it in the
status bar.

Thanks. I did try that same technique earlier and it didn't seem to work,
but I tried it today and the Application name seems to be retained on the
title bar. Thank you.
