Disable AutoStart Macro (MS Access) Print E-mail
Office

Q. I have an MS Access file that I'm trying to open. While starting, it tries to run a macro that crashes (hangs, doesn't work, etc) and then kicks me out. What can I do?

A. Disable "AutoStart" macro. To do that press and hold the "Shift" button while opening your database.

Note: if your macro used to bring up forms and you've stopped it, you will need to open the forms manually. Click on the Drop-down menu in Navigation Pane and select "Forms" From there you'll be able to get the forms you are looking for
