I have created a switchboard, and it shows up in the Switchboard Manager, but the icon is not anywhere. I'm trying to find it to open the switchboard, in design view and just to run it at all. But it is only in the switchboard manager, its like the icon got deleted off the report page and now it is gone completely. Any thoughts of where I can find my lost switchboard icon?
 
Tsouthar,

If you're looking for the switchboard in the reports page then you're
looking at the wrong place... the switchboard is a form, and is top be found
on the Forms page of the database window.
If you still can't see it, then it's probably been set to hidden. In that
case you need to follow the menu path Tools > Options, tab View, tick Hidden
Objects in the top right hand side so hidden objects are visible in your
database window. If you then see your switchboard there, you can right-click
it, select Properties and remove the tick from the Hidden property, so it
becomes visible under normal conditions again.

HTH,
Nikos

Hello, I am having a similar problem. I cerated a couple of switchboards and they do not show up in the forms window. I went to 'Tools/Options/view tab and clicked the show hidden objects, yet they still do not appear in my forms window. Any Ideas

You can open the switchboard table and add to one of the ID and item number
Item Text =Design
Command 5
if you which to see how this works us ALT-F11 and then open
Form_switchboard.
select the
Private Function HandleButtonClick(intBtn As Integer)
Const conCmdCustomizeSwitchboard = 5
