Auto Close a Form (Access 97) -

Hi All,

Is there a way to automatically close any form that is idle for more than a specific time.

In access the data is not updated until the form is closed or moved to another record, what I need, is in a multi user enviroment, to get access to automatically close any form thats opened if say the mouse is not moved for a period of time (idle).

This would then update the data that user was working on.

I use access 97, have a front end with all my forms, queries and modules and a backend with the tables.

the front end tables are linked to the backend (all split with the database split utility).

Thanks.

CigMia
