From: Bob Spence Bob on 24 Jan 2010 12:42 ACCESS 2007 - I have amended the code for the maximum number of buttons from 8 to 16. I have copied the buttons and labels and renamed them sequentially using the naming conventions. When I am in Switchboard manager I get "Sorry, only 8 items allowed per switchboard page"
From: John Spencer on 24 Jan 2010 12:55 This may or may not be true in Access 2007, but in earlier versions Step 1. Open the code window for the form and change the line Const conNumButtons = 8 to Const conNumButtons = <The Number You Need> John Spencer Access MVP 2002-2005, 2007-2010 The Hilltop Institute University of Maryland Baltimore County Bob Spence wrote: > ACCESS 2007 - I have amended the code for the maximum number of buttons from > 8 to 16. > I have copied the buttons and labels and renamed them sequentially using the > naming conventions. > When I am in Switchboard manager I get "Sorry, only 8 items allowed per > switchboard page"

From: Bob Spence on 24 Jan 2010 15:12 Hi John I have done this as: Const conNumButtons = 16 I have also compacted and repaired and closed and open Access - all to no avail.

Hi Bob, Switchboard FAQ 1. Q: How do I have more than eight items on the switchboard form? http://www.accessmvp.com/JConrad/accessjunkie/switchboardfaq.html#eight This includes the following: "Compile the code, save and close the form. Now if you use the Switchboard Manager interface you are still restricted to 8 items. To add more you have to add the entries manually into the Switchboard Items Table. Shouldn't be hard to do if you take a few minutes and see how the records are entered. You can EDIT more than 8 entries from the Wizard, but cannot ADD more than 8." Personally, I think you will be much happier using an unbound Switchboard form, perhaps with a tab control.
