Can you have one switchboard for several databases?

Have several databases and was wondering if you could build one switchboard
to access all of them along with there contents. Access 2003

If you create your own switchboard from unbound forms, you will not be
subject to the Switchboard Manager's limitations. I don't use Switchboard
Manager because I view it as a "complex solution to a simple problem".

You can open another database without closing the one in which you are
executing using the SHELL statement; if you want to "Shut One, Open Next",
you might want to visit Michael Kaplan's site, http://www.trigeminal.com and
look for TSISOON.
