A2003, XP Pro Can anyone confirm this behavior? Open an Access mdb. Hide a form. Open MS Word. Close Word. Does the previously hidden Access form appear unhidden? It does for me. Can anyone tell me how to keep the form hidden? Thanks
It stays hidden for me. What service pack levels are you on for Office and Windows? The vba code in the form Me.visible = false also works for me.

What happens if you hide multiple forms? -- Dirk Goldgar, MS Access MVP www.datagnostics.com (please reply to the newsgroup)
All hidden forms reappear. It happens as soon as I close Word but no other Office program has the same effect. It doesn't matter whether I hide forms programmatically or not. Weird. I'm only on Office SP2; I'm going to try SP3 and see if that helps.
