[AccessD] Access 2010 how to

John,
 If you select the bar with the down arrow circle you should get a drop
down with Navigate to Category. Select the Object Type and select the
Bar again and it should show a grey bar Filter By Group that list's the
Tables < Forms, Macro's etc. Select one of those and it takes you to
those tabs. The best thing about Access 2010 is the work window now has
tabs and you can have many things open at the same time and switch back
and forth between the tab to see the data.

Susan,

Thanks for replying.

I am seeing my database open for business, with a switchboard.

At the top is a very small toolbar with the Access symbol, a floppy (how
quaint!) etc.
Below that is a tab with File / Home etc.  Home is selected, apparently
by default?
Below that is a toolbar.  Massive!
Below that is a work area.  On the left side is a pane with the work
Custom in it and a drop down 
arrow in a circle plus the << for causing it to shrink
Below that is a bar with "Unassigned objects"

So which of these objects is the navigation pane?  Or more appropriately
- PAIN as you are calling 
it.  ;)

I do not see an ellipsis (...) anywhere visible.
