Switchboard Help
I have used the "wizard" and even tried to create a "Dashboard" type form.
When I use the wizard it comes up blank. I have tried and tried but no success. I have run all the tutorials I can fins and all say the same thing. Why wont this thing run? I have a simple table, several queries and many reports. I am lost! Can anyone help? I have even tried to copy in code for the VB but i dont know enough about it to make it work. Please help. Ty

Why don't you build a simple menu form and use command buttons to open your
forms and reports? There are very easy button wizards or you could even use macros. -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.mvps.org/access http://www.accessmvp.com "Ty" Ty @discussions.microsoft.com wrote in message ...

Thanks for the response. This method doesn't seem to work either. I can build
it just fine, use the button wiz and when i click - nothing happens. It doesn't seem to connect to anything. One gentlemen sent me code for the do.cmd but I dont have the experience to utilize the code yet. Could something be wrong with my software, perhaps a setting or something.

I discovered the problem: The macro security was blocking the code to use the buttons! IT WORKS! Thanks. "Ty" wrote: Thanks for the response. This method doesn't seem to work either.

I thought that might be your problem. If you are using Access 2007, try
adding a Trusted Location. -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.mvps.org/access http://www.accessmvp.com "Ty" wrote in message ...
