I have a task to convert several Approach databases to Access. The user is very interested in keeping some of the functionallity that is normal in Approach.
The ability to use the index tabs that are displayed on the top of the screen in Approach allows the user to jump from form to table to report on the same record. My user would like to have a similar (index tab) menu system.
I have designed a switchboard system that they hate.
Is there a way to do this in Access? If not, are there 3rd party interfaces that are available to accomplish this function? Thanks in advance.
 
I don't really understand what you mean - any chance of a screen shot from Approach?

Screen shot

I have a screen shot but can't seem to insert it in the reply.

Thanks Pat, I was hoping there was a simple solution or some kind of addin that would similate a very nice feature that exists in Approach. There are a lot of things that stink in Approach like scripting and queries but the Menu/index tab main screen is really nice and simple to set up.
