HIAndrew and all. Are you talking of the old keysoft interface? I believe you could have that happen with that, or ms dos could do same thing if a link to word perfect was put in the bat file which it used to boot. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of AKH Sent: 20 September 2014 13:46 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Fastest way to open a file? Hi Steve, Jim and Bob Thanks. In this age of great software, I'm surprised that there's not a way of booting up and being directly in an open file ready to go. I seem to remember years ago I had a laptop that I would boot up and eventually it would be in the same file as when I last closed it down.
