If you are wanting to replace the Access logo that appears when you
open your database, then just create your graphic as a GIF file. Save
it with the same name as you mdb file but with the .gif extension.
Place this file in the same folder as your mdb file. Now when you
open your mdb file it will display your GIF file.

If you are only wanting to show a GIF file while some other process is
going on (after Access is loaded) then create a form. Place your
graphic file on this form and open the form using the startup
options. Once you are ready for something else to be displayed, have
your code to close the graphic form and display the desired form.

I can't give you specifics but here is maybe an idea if you have
WindowsXP ---
Store your GIFs in a common folder. Windows has a slide presentaion. Use the
Shell function to launch the slide presentation.
