Sometimes the navigation pane can become so small it cannot be expanded


Here are three possible solutions:

1.   Use code
      Run this code from a standard module

      CODE:

Public Function MaximizeNavigationPane()

On Error GoTo ErrHandler

   DoCmd.NavigateTo "acNavigationCategoryObjectType"
   DoCmd.Maximize

Exit_ErrHandler:
   Exit Function

ErrHandler:
   MsgBox "Error " & Err.Number & " in MaximizeNavigationPane routine : " & Err.Description, vbOKOnly + vbCritical
   Resume Exit_ErrHandler

End Function

2.   Toggle the F11 button

3.   Modify the search bar
      Right click to get the navigation options and untick (or tick) show the search bar.
