    Locked Out of My Own Databse

    Hello All,

    I have made a critical error with my system, in tools on startup i unticked all the boxes, and now when it loads it brings up the system only and not the design view tables etc,

    Is there anyway that this can be undone??????

    Well if you haven't managed to disable the Shift keys, you can hold down the <shift> key when you open your database. You should go back into the Setup and choose your selections a bit more carefully.

    <ctrl><shift> M will also bring back your menu so you get get to Tools/Options.

    Luck!

        As far as your problem is concerned :
        1. Try using F11 to show the database.
        2. If that doesn't work try Alt-F11 (VBA Window) / Ctrl-G (Immediate Pane) & enter the following :
          Code:
          DoCmd.RunCommand(acCmdStartupProperties)
