I just ran into ProtoFluid today, via this post. It allows you to test your webpage/web app on various mobile devices and screen sizes without having to own them

Combined examples from this site and that site to make the following:
var oAccess = new ActiveXObject('Access.Application');
oAccess.Visible = false;
oAccess.OpenCurrentDatabase('c:\\path\\database.mdb');
oAccess.DoCmd.RunMacro('NameOfMacro');
oAccess.Quit(2); //2 = acQuitSaveNone option for save command
oAccess = null;

The Mrs wanted a wallpaper changer, but the Powertoys one doesn’t work because she’s using a limited account and it tries to create the bmp file in a restricted directory. So I made her one. Don’t ask me how it works, it makes my head hurt to just look at its ugliness. My VB is so rusty.
