Neomy,
.... to work with no success?

What happens?
What doesn't happen?
What do you want to happen?
Which Access version?
If you want help you have to give a bit more than the minimum time it
took you to write these 3 lines.

But then, why not create your own switchboard using an unbound form?
It's quite easy, more adaptable than the switchboard created by the
switchboard manager. Maintenance is easier, and if you use the command
button wizard to add the command buttons, Access will even write most
of the code for you.
Look at the example used in the Northwind.mdb example database shipped
with Access for just a general idea of what can be done.

Very few people bother with this. The switchboard is 0.0000000000000001% of
what Access is about.

Create a form and add buttons to create a main menu form from which to
launch other forms in your application.
