K.3. Access Managers

In addition to builders and wizards, Access has three very powerful managers. We don't know what we would do without the Linked Table Manager to quickly link or re-link to data files. Granted, we could create our own tools or use add-ins to provide these functions, but for the most part, these do an incredible job. I admit that I often create my own main menu, but there are still plenty of instances in which a switchboard is ideal.

These managers are consistent, they work, and they are quick and easy to use.
