Switchboard won't appear (Access '03)

Hay guys,

When I create a switchboard, everything works fine until the last step:
the main (default) switchboard page won't show up. I've double-checked
the macros and the individual pages (under Tools-Database
utilities-Switchboard Manager) and everything else is fine. What might
the problem be, and how can I fix it?

When you say it won't show up, do you mean that it's a blank screen or
it won't show up when you launch the database? If it won't show up on
launch check tools/startup and be sure you have it set to the correct
form/page.

I mean that there's no switchboard form under the "Forms" object
listing in the left panel. Usually, the switchboard appears as one
form among others but for some reason, not any more.

Is it possible that the attributes on the form was changed to hidden?
You can make sure you are viewing hidden objects under
Tools/Options/View/Hidden Objects.
