Access Navigation Pane too narrow
Access Navigation pane too narrow and cannot be fixed by any suggestions made here or elsewhere on the internet. Numerous phone and chat communications with Microsoft have been a huge waste of time....

OK. In that case, have you tried just dragging the nav pane to the width you require by grabbing the right hand edge with the mouse and moving it to the right with the left mouse button held down
Before

isladogs Sadly this too has been tried many times with no success. I don't have this problem on my new tower PC, only my laptop, both Win 11.
Even Microsoft gave up! An email simply states they are sorry they cannot help me with my issue. Not impressed with MS Tech support....- George_HepworthSep 06, 2022Silver ContributorTo be fair, they're not faced with rather unusual problems like this often. As you can, no doubt tell from the discussion here, not even experts like Colin are able to really pin down an answer that easily.
This is also WIndows 11 we're talking about. Not enough history to have exposed all the hidden problems. As you state, it affects one of your computers, but not the other. It's probably down to some problem on that specific computer, with its specific configuration. Maybe even a monitor problem. Unless someone can replicate the problem, it can be quite challenging to even know where to begin.
I'm not excusing MS here, just trying to point out the situation we're in as objectively as possible.
As a matter of fact, one thing you could try is to upload the accdb in question. Perhaps someone can then dig into it in some depth.- isladogsSep 06, 2022MVPUploading the database was also going to be my next suggestion. I've never yet seen a database where this issue couldn't be fixed
BTW if you do any further screenshots, please uset he Windows Snipping Tool or the PtrScn key to capture the screen. Crop the image as necessary. This will give a much clearer image than what you re dong now (taking a photo with your phone). Thanks in advance
