[AccessD] Access 2007 Navigation bar

Hi

I am creating an access database from a 2003 version and would like to not 
display the standard microsoft ribbon.  I would like to display my 
customized toolbars created in the 2003 version and not the Microsoft 
default ribbon.   However I also need to update the database and add the 
attachment feature for entries which is only supported in the accdb version. 
The accdb version does not allow for customized toobars as the only 
displayed ribbon/toolbar.

Thanks in advance for any help

Look up RibbonX there is a lot of stuff on the web. This site is great and 
Patrick has a lovely developer tool available to customise the ribbon for 
you.

Basically you create a system table used to hold the XML files used to 
create the menus or now Ribbons.

Can anyone point me at a tutorial or sample code or something that
illustrates how to customize the navigation bar? I don't find the list of
tables and forms and reports particularly useful, except in terms of
development. I have more in mind a sort of hierarchical series, vaguely like
the classic switchboard technology but much more useful. Something along the
lines of:

Customers
   Browse Customers
   New Customer
   Print Customer Labels
   Top Ten Customers
   Email selected Customers

Products
   ...
   ...

etc.

TIA,
Arthur
