We use Infragistics controls, which are far from free but are very reliable and enough like Access objects to feel familiar. We are using the Outlook metaphor, which doesn't thrill me but is popular. We also have menubars at the top of the screen and context menus available. We basically give the user multiple ways to get at menu options and we are actively avoiding *ribbons*!!

The Outlook-style is popular, I know, but what control to use to mimic that? Preferably free stuff. /gustav _______________________________________________ dba-VB mailing list dba-VB at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-vb http://www.databaseadvisors.com
