How do i turn of the "Windows in Taskbar" options setting with code? I had written a function that used sendkeys to go and change the value of the windows in taskbar checkbox field located in tools->Options->Windows in Taskbar, but this doesn't seem to work all the time. Does anyone know how to access the Options Menu from VBA Code? Theirs got to be a way. Any help would be great.

Application.SetOption "ShowWindowsInTaskbar", False

Thanks for the info it works great.

I was just curious, but how do u find out the list of "OptionName's" for the "Application.SetOption" command?

The object browser gives you the list of members for the application class, but it doesn't give you a description of what the members do or anything else. Do u know a good online resource that would help describe the various Access classes and associated members?

And how would I go about writing an If statement for that?

' If Statement
If Application.SetOption("ShowWindowsInTaskbar",False ) Then
strWIT = "Off"
Else
strWIT = "On"
End If

' Do it the way I want
Application.SetOption "ShowWindowsInTaskbar", False

' Set it back the way it was before quitting
If strWIT = "On" Then
Application.SetOption "ShowWindowsInTaskbar", True
End If

DoCmd.Quit
