Hello, I recently make a simple database for a co worker to track returns,
I set it to open up in the form mode only.

Later on he asked me to modify a report for him and I went to do so.  I hit
the Ctrl key as I opened up the program and a dialog box came up (I didn't
read it), I clicked yes -my  default answer, and it opened up in the form
mode.

I exited out and tried again (this time do dialog box) and it opened in
form mode again.  I don't understand it.  I am truely locked out of my own
database.

Can you help me.  Please.

What do you mean "it opened in form mode"?  What is "form mode"?

If you are able to open the database, then you are not locked out.  Do you
see the database window with the tables, forms, reports, etc?

Have you tried hitting F11 once the database is opened?

The bypass key is the Shift key, not the Ctrl key.

To be honest clicking away at dialog boxes without reading them is asking
for trouble anyway; as Treebeard would say "lets not be so hasty now"......
