    Switchboard

    Usually the switchboard has a limit of 8 menu items.


    Can we create a menu item which opens up a new switchboard page which has say 3 more menu items relating to the main menu item?
    If so, how?

    Can this be done without having to write code?

    I don't like to use the switchboard because of its limitations. Here is an alternative, but you will have to write code. The code is spelled out very clearly in this tutorial.

    I have as many as 14 buttons on a menu program form (switchboard) as it is called otherwise, but yes I use a button to call other forms to open with other buttons such as a print menu with diffrent print selections.

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