How to Reset Full Menu Option For Database On Startup


 https://bytes.com/topic/access/answers/594587-how-reset-full-menu-option-database-startup

 So you can't actually get to the Startup screen at all atm?
Not good.
There are some tricks to try but it is possible to leave a database completely protected if you're not careful and never be able to access it again.
  • Try holding down the bypass (Shift) key while opening the database.
  • Try using Ctrl-Break while the system is running to see if it will allow the operator into the Debug window.
Whenever protecting a database like this always leave yourself a back-door. I know this is a bolted horse scenario but it won't hurt to make the point anyway.
Let me know how you get on.

Now, previously (pre Office 2007), the basic format to export a query to Excel format was simply: DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputQuery, "YourQueryName" , acFormatXLS, , True BUT, once you port such a database to a post Office 2007 computer, you start to get it exported as a “ Microsoft Excel 5.0/95 Workbook (*.xls) ” format and such a file will thus open Excel in compatibility mode possibly given the user compatibility errors/messages when they go to save the file after working with it.
