I'm trying to replace the custom menu that migrated over from my Access 2002
when converted to 2007. I remember a few months ago having to import the old
menus. But after reading and proceeding with the new ribbon and quick access
toolbar I'd like to scrap the old menus and use either the qat or a cusomized
ribbon.
I've created the USysRibbons table with the three specified fields and
entered a couple of XML examples into the table. The problem with this
approach is that when I get to the part where I need to close Access and
reopen it to select the Ribbon Name from the Access Options/Current
Database/Ribbon and Toolbar Options there are no ribbon names or custom menu
names to be found.
Since all of the articles glaze over this as though all the items created in
the USysRibbons Table there is never any mention as to what I may have done
that is stopping the drop down list from being populated. I assume it has
something to do with the Custom Menu's in the Add-in's tab at runtime but I
can't find where to access any setting for either the Custom menus or the
Ribbons.
I've read one thread when googling where someone else experienced the same
problem but no response was shown. As always I'm sure I'm missing something
but can't find what it is.
I think the ribbon and qat will be very cool to use once I can get to them.
( although the ribbon is Waaaay to Tall for runtime apps. )
Thank you for any insight.
