    Smile Menu buttons

    I am trying to create a menu button when depressed will open up another screen containing 6 reports that you can then choose from. How do I create the initial menu button which leads to the new screen with the six report options (which need to have a button as well) on it.



    Secondly once the report options buttons are created - how do I link them back to the specific reports? (all reports have already been created)

    Have you tried the button wizard? It should offer the options of opening a form/report.

    With the form in design view, on the Design tab of the ribbon if you click on the button icon and then on the form, the wizard should start automatically. If not, make sure they're turned on, via a button on the ribbon that looks like a magic wand or something.
