If I accidently close my switchboard form, is there a short cut key to make
it reappear?
 
Hi Dave,

Dave you have not mentioned which version of Access you are using.
In Access 2000 and later, the Switchboard Manager and the Linked Table
Manager do not appear on the Add-Ins submenu (Tools menu) as they did in
previous versions of Access. They now appear on the Database Utilities
submenu (Tools menu).

Create, customize, and delete a switchboard form (MDB)

Customize a switchboard:
Open the database.
On the Tools menu, point to Database Utilities, and then click Switchboard
Manager.
In the Switchboard Manager dialog box, select the switchboard you want to
edit, and then click Edit.
Click the item on the switchboard you want to change, and then do one of
the following:
To change the text of the item, the command performed by the item, or the
object that's opened or run when you click the item, click Edit.

To add an item, click New, type the text for the item, and then click a
command in the Command box. Depending on which command you click, Microsoft
Access displays another box below the Command box. Click an item in this
box, if necessary. For example, if you click one of the form commands in
the Command box, click the name of the form you want to open.

To delete an item, click Delete.

To move an item, click Move Up or Move Down.

Click Close.
----------------------------------
Note If you have not yet created the database for which you want to add a
switchboard, you might want to use a database wizard. The wizard
automatically creates a switchboard that helps you to navigate around the
database.

You can use the AutoKeys Macro to create a shortcut to (re-
open) the Switchboard Form.

Check Access Help on AutoKeys Macro.
