Hi
I have developed my application using Access 2000/SQL server 2000 as a .adp file. In order to create a user menu I have used the Access switchboard wizard. This was not available in my .adp file directly, so I created it in an .mdb and used the upsize wizard. I have set the switchboard form to auto-open in my application, and this works perfectly in Access 2000, but my users are now upgrading to Access 2002, and the switchboard just displays as a blank screen instead of the menu. This behaviour only occurs where Access is tring to auto open the screen. If I make it so my users open it with a button click it works fine, or if I manually switch it to design mode and back it works fine. But not on Auto open.
Does anyone know how I can get round this problem so that the menu just opens without my users needing to do things manually
Thank
Chris
