Tom and Duane,

Never mind.  I found it.
 
 
You just use the /cmd switch to pass in a value and then check the value of the Command function inside your startup form or autoexec macro.
 
Thanks,
Toby

Subject: [AccessDevelopers] Starting a specific form when opening Access

I have a backend database that I normally want a form basically saying "you shouldn't be in this database" with only a button to exit the database to show up.  I have this set as my startup form.  This works fine.
 
Now I want to make another form that will just update a couple tables and I can call with the Task Scheduler.
 
I know I've seen a way to open a specific form using the command line, but I can't seem to find it right now.
 
Can anyone save me some time searching for it?
 
Thanks,
Toby
