    Question Ribbon greyed out

    Suddenly most of my ribbon functions are greyed out. I noticed it when I was
    trying to change a simple format. I tried closing Access and reopening it but
    nothing is changed. I also tried other databases and still no dice. What have I
    done wrong?

    No idea.

    But first thing to check is the db Options settings.

    What happens if you hold down the shift key while opening db?

    TRhanks! I'm sorry, I thought that I had marked this thread solved. It was evidently a Windows issue. I rebooted my machine and everything went back to normal.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
