Web like menu

[Billiam]

Does anyone know if Access could have subgroup items on the navigation pane?
Instead of using a subform, I am using the Navigation Pane wih a custom
category and group...I would like to be able to choose a subgroup froma group
item, just as you do with an expanding menu like on a website...is this hard
to do or even possible? I just do not want my user to have to go through
several forms to get where they need to be.

thanks,
Billiam

I think you are speaking of the Ribbon which was introduced with
Office 2007, and you want to select a main item and have several
subitems appear.
Isn't that exactly what happens for example in Word if you click on
any of the tabs Insert, Page Layout, References etc: the ribbon
refreshes and details about that choice appear. This is how MSFT wants
you to think about the ribbon.
Additionally if I want to bring up a dialog with even more options, I
can click the icon in the lowerright corner of a section. (e.g. Page
Layout > Page Setup)
