Switchboard

[jonnygilmour]

My switchboard works until i close the program and reopen it. When i reopen it the buttons do not function

Hmmm. Is this Access 2007? If so:

This is just access xp sorry

 

[georgedwilkinson]

It could potentially be the same base problem. Are macros enabled?

 

[jonnygilmour]

I have a macro enabled to maximise the window when it opens this functions correctly. If you wished i could send you the database so you would know what i mean

 

[georgedwilkinson]

I guess that would be OK...just post it here and if I can't get to it, maybe someone else can take a look.

How To Upload A Database To The Forum

I've actually had instances where this would kind of happen to me, only to find out that my database had corrupted itself. I would make a backup before doing anything to correct the problem. You may also try making a new db and copying all your tables/queries/forms/reports/macros/modules and anything else into that database then seeing if you still have the problem. It is somewhat time consuming, but may resolve the problem.

Are there any error messages when you click the buttons? You could also try a compact and repair, but absolutely make sure to back it up before doing so.

This is my database im sure youl find it pretty primitive but any assistance sort out this problem would be very much appreciated the username is 'Jonny Gilmour' and password if 'farmwizard'

It looks like you sent the wrong file. You most likely tried to send a shortcut rather than the actual database.

Make sure your access options are to enable macros, and that its a trusted site location.
