Thanks Maxx,

Australia day was nice, but this weekend has been awful in the part of Oz I live (South East Australia). Massive bushfires with many houses destroyed and lives lost - whole towns have been wiped off the map.  Crazy hot weather (47 degs C - 116.6F) with wild wild 90 km/ph winds.  Insane stuff.  Worst firestorm and weather since records began.

regards
Darryl.

  That's because despite any overtures made, Microsoft does not consider
Access to be a professional development tool; user features first and
foremost always.  Development features are always secondary.

Agree.  In A2003 I never saw anything that could be done through the
toolbars or otherwise, that could not be done in VBA using one or another
object model.  This seems to be a real basic difference in 2007.  Why would
the ribbon be exempted from programmatic manipulation.  Why no
Application.Ribbon. Or a DoCmd.Ribbon?

All of this to get rid of something that should be directly programmatically
manipulatable.
