I have a access dbase, within the dbase there are many many queries. Is there a method to uses that will dynamically have each query appear on a Swhitchboard. For example if a user adds a new query, some users can, I would like for that query to be added to a list of available queries on a form or switchboard without me having to edit the form or switchboard each time.

Thanks in advance


 
I would be tempted to not use a switch board as they are limited to only 8 commands at any level. Instead create form that builds a list of the queries and the user selects the query they want and a command button runs it.

I am not entirely sure how to get a list of the queries but I know its possible as I've done something similar before.

By using this method you will not have to edit and lists it will be automatic.
 
That is exactly my question, how do I accoplish this. When I use the reference to "switchboard" I am only using it as a genaric term. My intention is to create a form and populate it in a dynamic fashion. The method to do such, I have no idea.
