Reports not visible when DB run with main window hidden.

Hi
I have a DB that auto hides the main Access window upon opening. When I run it in that mode and try to open a report from a form (I also want the form to be hidden at this point so it is set to visible = false) the whole application disappears, the app just shows in task manager as MS Access and the only thing I can do is end task. I am obviously missing some knowledge on the relationship between reports and the main DB window, does it have to be visible for the report to be displayed? I don't want the end users to be able to format or change it in anyway so having the whole ribbon display is overkill in my view, I just want them to be able to browse the report with as little as possible on screen.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

TIA
Andrew

Hi
I omitted to mention that I set the calling form's visibility to false before the code to run the report, but this still does not resolve the issue.
