Hi,
Please verify that your startup options are ok!

You can do it by opening your database than you click on Tools/Startup...

On startup form you assign your switchboard and you desallow your database window

An other way is to create a macfro that you have to name autoexec in which you have to use the command openform with option your switchboard!

Hope that it will help!

Hi,

You click on Tools/Database Utilities/Switchboard Manager

Appears a window Switchboard Manager! This window helps you to create multiple switchboard managers and choose one as default!

When it isn't crearted a switchboard manager appears Main Switchboard (Default)

To create it you have to assign to it some controls! To do this you click on Edit bouton and you begin to add the commands on you Switchboard!

You need to add your commands inside!

Be carefull! There is a something like a bug! If you delete the created form once of the switchboard you can't recreate it!

If you have problem with the creation it's better to open new database and create your database switchboard there!

Use import database objects to transfer your objects from the old database to the new database!

Does anyone know what a switchboard can not do? This is a question I was asked in an exam and had no answer for. What do you all think? I started to put: "it will not do your housework for you".
This is my first post so I did not start a new thread for this question.

Welcome Busywolf in thescripts!

Enjoy your time here!

It's true! The switchboard is something that facilitate, the wizards too... but what is inside - this is the important!

Best regards
