Dear All

How can I set Access 2007 up in order to have the windows (forms,
tables, etc.) open in separate windows, accessible from the MS Vista
taskbar? In short, I would like to have Access 2007 behaving likewise
Access 2003, regarding opening windows.

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Hi Paul,

I don't believe this capability exists in Access 2007.

You can have the objects open in separate windows within the object
workspace by doing this:
- Click the Office button
- Click Access Options (bottom left corner)
- Click Current Database category
- Under the Application Options section for the radio button called
Overlapping Windows under Document Window Options
- Close and reopen the database

This will, however, still only show one option the taskbar for the
application.
