You can replace the default splash screen displayed when Access is starting up. Create
a new bitmap (BMP) and save it in the same folder where your database resides. Name
the bitmap the same as your database. For example
C:\MyApp\SuperApp.MDB
C:\MyApp\SuperApp.BMP
CAUTION:
I've seen this technique frequently result in a complete crash (Blue
Screen Of Death) under Win NT 4.0. I haven't been able to duplicate the crash in Win
95 environment.
Some folks suggest that this can be because of the Bitmap file size,
however, I haven't seen any conclusive evidence.
So, if you're using this method, make sure that you test your app
rigorously in both NT and 95 environments.
