SO. I moved the forms and made them main forms - and the ribbon STILL doesn't work! I am trying now to change the ribbon to just use the Export Tab (and the more options menu it includes, but I can't figure out how to write the xml. SO, once again, any assistance would be appreciated... because...

ok, the way they built many sections of this was before there was a switchboard manager. So essentially, when (in this case) the Reports button is selected, ALL of the options that are available are subforms. Since this form (and one other) in the DB are the only two that require a separate...

Nope, only one other ribbon for forms. Not even close. I love inheriting things - found out this form is a SUBFORM. If the mainform and subform have different ribbons could that be the problem? Do I need to break this form out to be free?:banghead:

There are no errors. I have the same result on another machine. This has something to do with the code that exists for the forms that are accessed by the user preceding the button macro to open the datasheet view form in question. Still trying to wade through it, but doesn't seem to make sense.

Thanks but I don't think this is going to get solved.

No need - this wasn't the problem at all. An associate changed the column focus. I want to kill him, but think I'll just beat with a wet noodle for a few hours.

Open the Inventory Report Options form, then Active Inventory Data Export button towards the bottom on that form.

God morning - ok, felt I had to include a few tables and the query behind the form, as they don't operate correctly (from a user standpoint) without them. I did limit the tables to just a few records (there are over 50K in the db). Running through the forms, the ribbon works fine in this...

Embedded Macro: OpenForm InventoryTempDataExport View - Datasheet Filter Name (blank) Where Condition (blank) Data Mode - Read Only Window Mode - Normal

(Same form)

I named the report in my previous post - it is the same report.

When I click on the form InventoryTempDataExport from the navigation pane to open it, the ribbon appears correctly as written with the code I posted. When I go through the forms to get to the report, and click on the button (InventoryTempExportButton) to open the report called...

No, that didn't work. But I think I am narrowing the issue. If I open the form using the custom ribbon directly, the custom ribbon works fine. But if I go through the user's route : Main Form-->Inventory Form-->Reports Button-->Data Export Button The ribbon does not appear correctly! What...

Forgot to mention - I am using Access 2013. This xml worked just fine in 2010.

There's something wrong with this xml - can someone please help?? The only control that is showing is the Print- Tabs appear, group appears, but the controls are not... <customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2009/07/customui"> <ribbon startFromScratch="true"> <tabs> <tab...

Record source form main form = blank Record Type for main form = Dynaset There are source OBJECTS (correct tables) for the subforms. Remember they are tabbed. Below is the code for each of the lit box row sources. I did indeed use the code tags. Looks like one big long string though - I have...

I've attached a screenshot to help describe. I have form, then tabbed subform, then tabbed pages. There is no row source for the pages (tabs below) - data comes from the selection in the list box which is part of the subform. There are NO events for the pages/subforms. Source OBJECTS are to...

The only requeries are in other functions (delete, add, undelete) and are separate commands. There's only additional code to allow/disallow editing of fields, but no requery in the edit command. I can't strip this down - this database is enormous with many, many relationships.

Bumping again... still no reply with a solution. Here is more detail: -The unbound list box resides in a tabbed subform -clicking a record in the list box fills the subform tabs with the data for the record selected - clicking the edit command button causes the highlighted record in the list...

VB Editor is not recognizing frm.RibbonName, Form.RibbonName... I cannot send a stripped db - it is massive and would take hours, there are many relationships, etc. I keep getting stopped at frm.RibbonName (error 438)
