can i run a form without Acces, or that i can't see access itself?

I agree with you, with all the arguments you named.
But my problem is that my boss want this feature, maybe if let him reed your
reply he will change his mind.
by the way I make this program, but when it is finished someone else is
keeping up the program. that person kwows only the basics of office.
so there's another reasone follow up you advices.
I gess i will chet with my boss and try to make change his mind.

thanks for all your replies

Also, take a quick read and look at the following screen shots of ms-access:

The above screen shots are from commercial applications I have written using
ms-access, and the users NEVER even know that the product is written in
ms-access. The applications simply look, feel, and run like any other of the
office applications..

I tryed that one but the way i can se it is not hiding Access it's
self. the problem i have with the code is when i put
fSetAccessWindow(0) it in the onopen event of a form i get a error
message. but when i set the same code in a onclick event of a button
de code wordks fine.

You may have to force the form to become visible first. Try inserting
the line

Me.Visible = True

before you attempt to hide the Access window.
