I learned a new trick today from Michael the PM for the navigation pane. We have heard a few of you have missed the ALT D shortcut to open an object in design. As you know, ALT in ribbon apps now allows you to access ribbon shortcuts. Next time you want to open an object in design view, try Control Enter.On a related note, a while back Russell Sinclair posted the following comment to my blog about the nav pane:The default setup when you open a new database or a database that hasn't been opened in Access 2007 is not configurable. I would like to be able to define whether or not the search shows by default,
Microsoft Office Pro Plus 2010, which list is used,
Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010, and what view (list,
Office 2010 Home And Student, icon,
Office Professional Plus 2010, detail) is shown.Russell--sorry for taking so long to get back to you but this is pretty easy. You just need to create a custom New Database template with the search box on and your favorite view type selected. Additionally,
Windows 7 Activation Key, there is a new visual demo available titled Meet the Navigation Pane.
