How do I create switchboards linked to Main switchboards?

RE: Switchboards

Hi Michael

To work on the Switchboard you need to open the Switchboard Manager. To do this:

1. In the Tools menu, Select Database Utilities and then click Switchboard Manager

2. In the Switchboard Manager dialog box click the New button to create a new Switchboard. Do this for every switchboard you require.

3. When done click on the Main Switchboard (Default) line and click the Edit button

a. In the Edit Switchboard Page dialog box click the New button to create the links on the Main Switchboard .

b. The links should Open the other switchboards already created.

c. Click Close .

4. You can edit the other switchboards to open forms or run reports bu following step 3 above

When all the Switchboards have the correct links and are connected to the Main Switchboard then click Close and run the Switchboard as any other form

Hope this helps

Carlos

Access tip:

Combo box for finding records

You can use a combo box in a form to look up a record. If you place the comb box in the Form header, by then selcting they a field type from the drop down loist, you will see the record for it
