Can Switchboard Command Perform Multiple Actions?

[Guest]

I am using Access 2003 and Windows XP.

I have created a switchboard using the switchboard manager. I have since
read that using an unbound form would be better, but I have already built a
fairly complex switchboard and would rather not start over using forms if I
don't have to. What I am trying to do is have two actions occur upon
clicking a button on the switchboard menu. I need to open another
switchboard page and also run a macro at the same time. I tried to run a
macro from the switchboard command that would open the desired switchboard
page as one of its actions, but could not figure out how to do that. I also
tried using a form opened by the macro and setting an event procedure to open
the switchboard page on the opening of the form, but I could not figure out
the code (I am new at code and don't know very much about it).

Is there a way to have a switchboard button perform more than one action, or
to build a macro that will open a switchboard page? Any guidance would be
appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Jeff-
I appreciate your willingness to help. For some reason, my computer would
not show any replies to my original post. As of today at 3:00 MST it said
mine was the only post there, so I deleted the old post and posted it again.
Sorry for any inconvenience in asking you to answer it again.
