Open Switchboard from Other Database

[kemosabe]

I'm building a switchboard form that will be a portal to activities in other
related databases. How do I "link" the switchboard item in the portal
database to the switchboard items in other databases? Thanks!

An Access db cannot really open another Access db and perform activities in
there as though you opened that other db in the first place. If you are
developing a Portal, Access is the wrong technology to use. It sounds like
you need a web application.
If you just want to access tables in another Access db, then you can do that
by linking the tables. All of the table manipulation logic, however, has to
be in your first database.
