I think you can use: Application.SetOption "Show Windows in Taskbar", False (or True)
....though I haven't actually tried it that way in code.
You could set this in the startup of some program, though the setting OTHERWISE stays set for the installation of Access and doesn't travel with a program.
I can set it with my installation of A2002 OK. I note the help (focus on the option and press F1) does say "you must install Microsoft Internet Explorer Active Desktop", but I thought that was pretty standard.
If you ask me, I HATE that option. Oh, you didn't ask? :-)
