AW: [AccessD] Sidebar navigation

hi Joshua,

you could try using the following

    DoCmd.SelectObject acForm, "YOUR_FORM", False
    DoCmd.MoveSize 0, 0, 11907, 1531

 
I use this in a couple of apps where I have a "selection" form and all other forms
are displayed below this one.

the form above is in the top left, 11907 twips wide and 1531 high.
I place all the other forms with DoCmd.MoveSize 0, 1531, 11907, 6237
as you can see all other forms start at the top where the "selection" form stops.
(1531 twips)

HTH

Betreff: [AccessD] Sidebar navigation


Hi Group,

A client of mine has requested that instead of having a "switchboard/main menu" type setup for navigation within their app, they would prefer to have a sidebar menu ala Access & Outlook. Has anyone had any luck designing this sort of interface within Access? My initial thoughts are to have a popup form and control it's size to take up a portion of the left hand side of the screen, however this means I would no longer be able to maximise other forms. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards.
