Does anyone know whether there is a way to create folders inside the right payne when you click on Tables or Queries or Forms or Reports in the the Objects side. I have alot of queries and forms that would be nice to put into folders for organizational reasons. I assume not but thought this would be the place to ask. If not does anyone know how you would send Microsoft a suggestion? Or is this a rediculous idea? Thanks Rob |

It looks like the built in groups tab will do exactly what you are looking
for:

If not does anyone know how you would send Microsoft a suggestion? Or is this a rediculous idea? Anthony has pointed you to a feature planned for Access 12 that would seem to allow you to do this. As I am certain you are not using Access 12, I would suggest the use of some sort of naming convention as a way of grouping the objects. I would also suggest that if you have such an overabundance of objects that you might try to make more of them dynamic, so that you can re-use a smaller number of objects. I have seen plenty of Access beginners who create a report, apply criteria and save it with the criteria, and then do this each time they need to apply criteria to a report. It's much easier to have one report and apply the criteria to that report as needed. However, it's not quite as easy to put that together as it is to edit the report and save it under a new name. -- David W.

This feature is available on my Access XP machine and I believe it has been
there since Access 2000.
