I am looking for a way to force a shutdown on a database. I have reviewed the post http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=103278 (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=103278) and follow this example with no luck.
After following this step by step when I open the Shutdown.mdb (without holding down the Shift key) the ShutdownMSG form appears and the countdown begans to shutdown.
I am not sure how to get this not to shutdown right away.
Since the form ShutdownMSG appears in the Shutdown.mdb I assume that the users would be working in Shutdown.mdb. Is that correct?
Also, would the users have to hold down the Shift key each time they open the database in order to prevent the database from shutting down?
