After you create the startup form, have Microsoft Access display the form automatically whenever someone opens your inventory database. Then, customize the database by adding a title to the startup form’s title bar, by adding an icon, and by selecting menu bar items. Click Startup (Tools menu), and then set options in the Startup dialog box.
