I have a form that takes too long to load so I have resolved to do the following:
After the form is opened for the first time, closing the form from the form nav changes the visibility property, and when you open it again from the switchboard, it opens quickly. It closes when you exit the application. I believe that if the user closes (hides) the form while a record is current, that other users will still have edit access to it and the users will receive a message if they try to save it ("The record has been modified by another user since you last saved it"). Just want to confirm.
Also, I originally tried to open the form acHidden on app launch, but in run time this stopped the application from running. Anyone experience that before? Seemed odd to me since I got that idea from Microsoft. It could be that I just had other issues. Any insights are appreciated.
