Not sure I am expressing myself correctly, but here it goes.

I'm developing an MS Access (2002) software package using Microsoft SQL
2000 on Windows XP Professional. No problem with the code, table
access. However, I want to hide the window that shows all the tables,
queries and what-not. So, I convert from an adp file to ade file and
clicked off all items in the Startup box. When I run the program
package, again not a problem. The window that shows the tables,
queries and what-not is hidden. If I minimize the ade file without
leaving a Form open and bring it up, again no problem the Window
showing all tables, queries and what-not is still hidden. However, if
I leave a window open and minimize the ade file, then bring it up, the
tables, queries and what-not appear. This does not happen in Windows
2000, or using an mde file in Windows XP Professional. I can't figure
out how to keep the tables, queries and what-not hidden in the ade
file.

If possible, based on the above, please advise as to what I am doing
wrong, or overlooking.

Thanks for any help.
