my switchboard prevents me making changes to the database

the database opens with a switchboard screen and doesn't provide access to
all the database tools so I can make changes, open tables, etc. In Access
2000 and 2002 you would hold down the control or shift key when you opened
the database and it turned off the switchboard control features to open
normally. I'm using Office 2003. Is there a similar key to press and hold
when you open a database to turn the switchboard feature off? Thanks!

Holding down the shift key works exactly the same in Access 2003 as in
previous versions.

If it's not working for you, perhaps someone set the AllowBypassKey property
to disallow it.
