How to make a form into a user interface (1 Viewer)

[jason2885]

I need to make a form into a user interface and I have no clue how to do that. I dont really know very much about coding or anything like that does anyone know of any place with examples on how to make a from into a user interface that will link into reports and forms in my database. If anyone has any suggestions on how to do this I would greatly appreciate it.

Are you talking about a switchboard? i think that is what you mean. there are numerous threads on switchboards. there is also a switchboard manager built into access. it can walk you through the design

I do not know how to get it back, you can start a fresh unbound form and place buttons on it to open the respective forms
