Every website is designed differently. Manuvering through multi-page sites
can be confusing and frustrating, with too many non-desired options and
buttons scattered all over the place, especially for casual web users. So,
what is needed is a way to make unfamiliar sites more familiar, and easier to
use. It could work something like this. Once a general choice is made on any
home page, the choices on the next screen can be highlighted (color-code
button(s) maybe) to direct you to your desired destination, and thereby
eliminating distracting, non-desired choices. This would be like following
road signs when driving, confirming you are on the right track. Also helpful
would be a branch diagrahm (flowchart-like) along the bottom of the screen,
that can indicate where to go next (possibly with the same color as
color-coded buttons), and keep you on the right course, like a road map.

Sorry, but this suggestion appears to have nothing to do with Access, the
database product that's part of Office Professional, and the purpose of this
particular newsgroup.

You'd be best off posting this to a newsgroup related to web pages.

You have posted this to an ACCESS newsgroup. ACCESS is a database
application that is Part of MS Office Professional. I think you have posted
this suggestion in the wrong place. What you are describing is a website
design issue. Not sure how Microsoft is involved. I believe that websites
can already be designed to do what you ask.
