Design Access UI

Customize the Ribbon


Staid old Access actually can be polished up quite a bit.

Erik Rucker is the Microsoft Access - Group Program Manager. Here is the link to his blog that describes how to do cool things the 2007 User Interface.


"The ribbon UI presents a ton of new flexibility for us creating Access and for you building apps on top of Access that wasn't there before.

As described in the posts on the ribbons, there are a lot of new control types that can be placed in the ribbon, and there's much more flexibility about how they are presented.

The downside to this additional flexibility is that the ribbons are more complex to create than the old command bars. Building ribbons isn't beyond the reach of any successful Access user today, but it will take some more work.

The upside is that the end product can be significantly better."
