Switchboard Items?

I have set the switchboard to open first when the database is opened.
However, the database window (where the forms, reports, queries, tables,
etc., are on the left of the window) opens also, but in the minimized bar. Is
there a way I can turn this off or stop it from opening like this? When the
database opens, all I want is the switchboard to open by itself and then the
end user can do what they need to do with the database, only through the
switchboard. I'm only asking because I have spent the last three weeks
putting this database together from scratch and by myself with a few
questions to this post and I don't want these people to mess it up.

Thank you.

Go to the Tools menu option and select Startup. in the Display Form/Page
drop-down box, select your switchboard (if that's an option. I never use a
"Switchboard" choosing to make my own). Now, under the Display Form/Page box
there is a checkbox "Display Database Window". Make sure this is unchecked.

Hope this helps.
