Is it possible to start up an application via Command button? i want to open another database (B) to view information while in database (A).

Hi Hutch

Yes, you can use the following code in the button's click event:-[code=vb]Dim TaskId as Variant
TaskId = Shell(CommandLi ne, WindowStyle)[/code]Check out the help on the Shell function.
