I created 3 macros. Each macro works if I run directly. I then created a Switchboard - Tools, Database Utilities, Switchboard Manager. I added the 3 macros as 3 individual objects on the switchboard. When I go to run the switchboard it open in Visual Basic, with an error message " Compile error, expected Case" The select statement in the Visual Basic window is
Option Compare Database
SELECT [tblContent].[Title]
Private Sub Command10_Click()
FROM tblContent
End Sub
I'm not sure where this SELECT statement is coming from. I have deleted the Switchboard Form and the Switchboard Table and I have recreated and I receive the same error. Please help.

I am working on a database that will be an addition to an existing one on the company server. However, to make the overall layout not so complex and allow room for other additions in the future, I'd like to keep the databases separate. This will also ensure more efficiency, integrity and troubleshooting overall.
I have the original database with the name of "Cell MFG Screen" that contains a switchboard. I am now creating a db to keep track of manufacturing waste (which will also be on the same server when completed). That switchboard is called "Cell Waste Weight". Again, I want to keep these db's separated from one another as well being able to add future dbs. Now, what my plan is to make up a one db that consists of only a switchboard that will be used as the main switchboard to be able to navigate to other dbs that are located on the server.
Does anyone know how this is done?
Thank you in advance for your help,
~Kilch

I have a program that runs under access 2007 that I use at my work. We will soon be updating to MS office 2010 and the program will not work now because a calender file .ocx was removed from access 2010. Is there a way to get the 2007 .ocx file to work in access 2010?The program I am using is a relatively simple stand-alone and unsupported app that we use to request patient arrival and departure from various radiology tests inside a hospital. No reports are made from the app other than the number of patient transports for the day.
The app is placed on a common drive accessed from any pc in the hospital. No special permissions are required. But our app does use the calendar, time and date functions in access 2007. When I tried the app on a pc with access 2010, it basically says it (access) cannot open the app because a .ocx file is not present.Is there a way to make the access 2010 calendar file work in access 2007?

I have an Access 2010 database with two tables and two forms. The tables are Organizations and People. Similarly, the forms are Organizations Entry Form and PeopleEntryForm. The People are linked to the Organizations table. Several people can be linked to the same organization.On my Organizations EntryForm, I created a command button to duplicate a record using the wizard. It works fine.
I did exactly the same thing on the PeopleEntryForm, but instead of copying the record, it creates a new blank record. I don't get any error messages. Is my problem due to the fact that the People table is linked to the Organizations table?

All,
I have created a new switchboard but don't know where it is. When I create it using the Switchboard Manager and then click close, it doesn't appear under any of the options. I have also set is as default but it fails to appear on startup.
Silly question I know. Any ideas?
Many Thanks
version: MS Acess 2003

Brief Summary,
I have limited experience in Access but have a bit more understanding of databases and tables. I am helping a friend create and access database to track the time his employees spend on different job sites. i am using a template from Microsoft called "Time and Billing" I am going to be manipulating the structure a bit but other than that the template should work fine.
My main struggle is I need to have a screen that the employees access that takes them straight to add / edit a time sheet. i want the rest of the data, reports, views to be password protected. Ideally the switchboard would load up to a page that had a button from employees to click on where they would be taken to the form and a button the owner could click on, enter a password, and be taken into the back-end where the main switch board and the rest of the data resides.
If anyone can help me out that would be great. Oh yeah, The Access database in is Access 2000 being used on a machine running XP Pro.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Gary

Ok, so I will sound like the dumbest person but essentially what is a switch board?
I have searched this place I have searched google but no luck, all I get is that its a menu to navigate, so basically a form with buttons that open frm's qry's etc... I have made a main menu with a basic form so whats so special about a switchboard.
Cheers

Help - I made a switchboard and it went wrong, so deleted all of the sub switchboards and the switchboard icon in the forms window.
I have now made a new one, but I can't get it to appear in the forms window.
Any ideas?

Hi
Can anyone tell me what the advantage (or difference) is in using a switchboard rather than just creating your own form and using command buttons etc?
Thanks

When I make a switchboard is there any way you can go to a table? or can you just go to a form or query? and when you make a switchboard and you have a button going to the form how can you go from the form back to the switchboard?

hi,
I've made switchboard. and change the properties of switchboard, namely the "don't show the menu bar". can anyone please explain to me, how to get it back?
in opposite case, I can kiss my db goodbye, for i can't make any changes into switchboard? or??
thanks a lot,

I think this is a simple request for those who know.
I want to display my switchboard to a user group, (read and update ).
The switchboard needs to be full screen and have no means of being minimsed or close, except by the exit button (obviously) on the switchboard.I also do not want to show any of the tool bar icons as well.
I want to retain it as it is now to me as 'admin' when I log in, that is with the ability to minimise and close etc.and all icons
How do I achieve this?

I would like to know if there's a way of adding a switchboard page that goes to a table instead of only forms and reports and such? Because I have subdatasheets that I would like to see when I click on a button from the switchboard, instead of just simply going to a form and not being able to work as easy as it would be to work with a table that displays the subdatasheet right there.
Thank you,
Charlie

I have copies of a split database (front end) placed on each employee’s computer, and I noticed my switchboard screen does not appear when the employee opens the database on their computer. I went through a lot of work designing the switchboard and would like to have it appear upon opening the DB. I know everything in the database is linked so there is no reason the switchboard should not appear. Any suggestions on how to make this happen?
In addition, I have pictures on the switchboard buttons, and I also noticed when I go to the second screen, the buttons on the second switchboard screen uses the same pictures as the default screen. Is there a way to not have it do that?
Thanks.

I have created a very simple switchboard with a few macro's to run either a form to add new records or a report based on a query.
Thing is, when I try to open the switchboard, I get a module error...
Since I'm really just using trial and error to create this entire database for a schoolproject, I don't know that much about access.
Anyone here able to help me out?
If more info is needed to answer the question, plz let me know so I can try to provide it...
Thx in advance,
