where is my switchboard?

[AlfredNor]

Ive looked in Tools...Add-Ins...but theres no option for Switchboard Manager.

Id really like to have a switchboard. Is there another way to create/edit one?

Thanks

I don't know what version you are using but if it's A2k then it's under Tools>Database Utilities>Switchboard Manager.

I prefer creating my own switchboards, blank forms with command buttons etc. It's more time consuming but I think it gives you more flexibility and control.

Ah.. ok

Ah ok...I believed the help file that told me it was supposed to be in Tools...Add-Ins...Add-In Manager.

I swear thats what it says.


Now how do I give two commands to the same button?

I want to make a navigation button that takes you back to the switchboard after you are done with the form.

The wizard does the first command..but how do I add a second command?

If you plan to create databases then follow DBL's advice and create your own switchboards and stay away from the Switchboard Manager. The Switchboard Manager is awkward and is limit in its abilities so go with DBL's suggestion and create forms to be used as your menus/switchboards...

hth,
