What part should I modify. Little confuse.

It may differ in Access 2007, which I don't have, but in earlier versions you
need to amend the code in the switchboard form's module. For example
amending this code in the HandleButtonClick event procedure:
' Go to another switchboard.
Case conCmdGotoSwitchboard
Me.Filter = "[ItemNumber] = 0 AND [SwitchboardID]=" & rs!
[Argument]
to this:
' Go to another switchboard.
Case conCmdGotoSwitchboard
If rs![Argument] = 2 Then
If GetUser() = "Ken" Then
Me.Filter = "[ItemNumber] = 0 AND [SwitchboardID]=" & rs!
[Argument]
End If
Else
Me.Filter = "[ItemNumber] = 0 AND [SwitchboardID]=" & rs!
[Argument]
End If
allows only the user logged in as Ken to open page 2 of a switchboard but all
users to open other pages. To bar Ken from opening page 2, but allow all
other users to do so you'd use GetUser() = "Ken".
In this case it calls a function GetUser to identify the currently logged in
user. For this the following module should be added to the database:
''''module basGetUser''''
''''module starts''''
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Declare Function GetUserName Lib "advapi32.dll" Alias "GetUserNameA" (ByVal _
lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long
Public Function GetUser() As String
Dim strBuffer As String
Dim lngSize As Long, lngRetVal As Long
lngSize = 199
strBuffer = String$(200, 0)
lngRetVal = GetUserName(strBuffer, lngSize)
GetUser = Left$(strBuffer, lngSize - 1)
End Function
''''module ends''''

An example of how this is done.
Thank you
Yes but you would have to do that as part of the switchboard form not any
part of the switchboard itself.
