Switchboard Manager
I'm not sure what that means then. Do you mean that you deleted something from a Ribbon?
What version of Access are you using, by the way?
Can you post a screen shot of what you are seeing?
I created a Switchboard Manager as shown, it appeared in the forms panel as it should. However, I accidently deleted it from there, so I can no longer open the Main Switchboard. I am using Access 2019 with Microsoft 365.

Thanks. It has been many years since I used the old switchboards so I'm not sure, I think what that did was delete the form itself from the accdb. If so, the solution is, as previously suggested, to go to the most recent backup and import it from there.
Open the Navigation Pane, as I showed, and look for a form there called "Switchboard".

It also just occurred to me that you must be using an mdb, not an accdb, correct?
Here's Switchboard form in an mdb, opened in Access 2019.
- teddyandeddieFeb 27, 2021Copper ContributorNo I am using an accdb, I have the navigation panel open and it is not there as I accidentally deleted it. How would I recover it?
- George_HepworthFeb 27, 2021Silver ContributorI was not aware that you could still create switchboards in an accdb. Sorry.
As I said, twice, import it from the most recent backup.
