Switchboards w/ multiple databases

[Kodama76]

I have about 7 databases in my company all in one shared drive. Each Database has a really nice switchboard form. I want to ease my users' use of these databases by making one main switchboard that has buttons that open the switchboards of each of the other databases.

I figured I would make a blank database (mde file) that only had a switchboard in it that had command buttons that opened the other databases.

How would I do this without causing too much overhead or messy linking? Is this the right way of doing things? Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Colin

you can do what you want by using an existing
db.create your form then on each button
select hyperlink address,browse for your database,
double click on it then away you go

no code no nothing

hope this helps

Thanks, that works...and after changing the on click expression to close the database it makes it so that the users don't have more than one instace of Access open.

Thanks again for your help.
