Default Switchboard updates problem

Hi,

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

My database has a main switchboard (a blank form that has
lists of information and buttons on it) that remains open
because it has parameters used by other forms.

I'd like to rerun the queries that supply the lists on
this switchboard each time I return to it from another
form. Somehow, I haven't been able to figure this out yet.

I've tried putting a docmd.requery onto the OnActivate
event, but that doesn't seem to work for me.

Any ideas why I'm failing here? All help is appreciated.

You might try refresh instead of requery. I use this to
update combobox lists on a switchboard.
Hope this helps.
