Create and the macro in the database.<br />
Create a normal shortcut to the database.<br />
Move this shortcut to the desktop.<br />
Edit the properties of the shortcut to include something like this to the end of the text in the &quot;target&quot; box:<br />
/x YourMacro<br />
<br />
so the &quot;Target&quot; box might look something like this:<br />
<br />
&quot;C:\Documents and Settings\Somebody\My Documents\YourDatabase.mdb<wbr />&quot; /x YourMacro
