    Two questions about Access 2010 behaviour vs 2007

    Hi.



    First question - in previous versions of access, when I introduce a command button on a form, I would get a dialogue box asking me what I wanted the button to do (open a form, report, etc.) and it would put the appropriate 'on click' event in place. This doesn't happen in 2010 - can I reintroduce it?

    Secondly, the 'Design' menu is different too - can I reintroduce the 2007 menu? (I don't like those huge icons for 'button', 'text field' etc).

    Thanks.

    1. In Design View, on the Design tab, expand the Controls group and click 'Use Control Wizards'

    2. Not that I know of, but you can create a custom tab on the Ribbon or add the gallery to the QA toolbar.

    If you're new to version 2010, I recommend checking out the Web Browser control; I'm having fun with it.
