Now I have never done this in Access but have done something similar in Excel. I have a Macro in Excel that creates a batch file and runs the batch file.

I would assume you could do the same thing in Access. From what I read about access if you call the macro Autoexec, it will run when Access is launched.

You may want to ask a moderator to move this thread to Business Applications. There is alot of Office gurus in there. That is where I get all the help I need with MS Office.
