Two different Switchboards

I have a database that I need two different menus for. I have used
Switchboard for my default main menu and have various sub menus. I want to
use the same Switchboard but with different items for the Read-Only users.
What I've done is create a second switchboard with a different table that has
different menu items.

I have two front end MDB files that each has a switchboard and use the same
back end. However, when I change the switchboard in one, it changes in the
other. Startup for ROStapnow.mdb has Switchboard RO form with Switchboard RO
table. The other one has Startup set to the Stapnow.mdb with Switchboard and
Switchboard table. What am I doing wrong? Besides getting confused?

I'm answering my own question. The reason I was having problems is that I
had a back-end data file that I had the Switchboard linked to. Every time I
made a change in a switchboard, all the other instances of my front end were
changing. To remedy this, I had to not have the Switchboard table linked so
that each "program" has it's own switchboard which I could change by using
the Switchboard Manager.
