Uhm. I'd have a hard time implementing a logic like "do not open this document when you cannot execute on-load-macros", this sounds ... strange. However, together with a "open a form when opening the DB doc" feature, one could - declare a minimalistic form saying "nothing here for you" as on-open-form - assign a macro to the OnLoad event of the DB doc (or the form), which replaces the form with the switchboard To me, that sounds more like a legitimate solution to the problem you sketched.
