What is the best method to create a main page that lists all of our open
files? This should work as a menu in that the info for each file cannot be
changed here - it would need to be selected and then opened in a form for
editing. My instinct is that a report would work best but I don't see that I
can format a report to be just a visual report/list on which I can create
command buttons and such for navigating.

Thanks for any help.

Create a listbox of open files (whatever that means) on a form. You can then
add command buttons to open other forms or whatever based on the value of the
listbox.
