Buttons on a Switchboard

[Guest]

Our database monitors trainings for over 500 employees. The trainings are
also shared with managers as reports. Our Main switchboard has one main page
and a few secondary pages that may include Management Reports. I was able to
create a button for Refresher reports that was successful however it shows up
on the main switchboard and the Management Report switchboard. I only want
it on thelatter and don't know how to do it that way. Thank you.

In place of adding a switch board menu for reports, simply BUILD your own
form that prompts for the reports.

You can place a button for each new report, or even get creative,and use a
listbox

Here is some screen shots, and notice how several of them have more then
one report.

So, just have your switch board launch a form that you built that has the
reports on it....

(or, if you want, just add a new sub-menu to the switchboard, and have all
the reports on that. If you use the switch board, then you want to let the
code for the switch board add the buttons, and if you add your own, then
they stay in view).

And, really, eventually, you might just want to dump the switchboard, and
build your own main form. There is some ideas here:
