I hate to show my ignorance, but I cannot find the answer anywhere, so am relying on the great folks here at Eileen's.
I was VERY accustomed to detail view in the database window. I could click on the object group (tables, queries, etc.) and sort by name or date and immediately find the object. With no detail view in the "Navigation Pane/Pain" , it takes additional clicks to do anything similar, and is not at all intuitive.
Is there a way to get the Navigation pain to emulate the old database window?
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Re: Access 2007/2010 navigation pane
The navigation pane is definitely a change for the worse, like so much in Access 2007.
You can show details and change the sort order by right-clicking the header of the navigation pane and selecting the appropriate options from the popup menu:
There are some free utilities that emulate the database window, if not all its functionality. See Access Junkie FAQ_13 for links.

Re: Access 2007/2010 navigation pane
Hans,
Thanks!
I downloaded the one at http://www.avenius.de/index.php?Produkte:DBC2007" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;, and it uses .NET 2.0. I have .NET 4.0 and it didn't load on my Access.
My questions now are:
1. Should I download and install 2.0?
2. Will loading 2.0 create any problems since I already have 4.0 running?
Thanks for your help.
Ken

Re: Access 2007/2010 navigation pane
Yes, you should downlad and install .NET Framework 2.0.
The different versions of .NET Framework (1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0) can coexist peacefully.
