Question Switchboards vs. Menus

I'm currently using a menu with various command buttons which direct the user to various forms, (including submenus). When you click a command button, I close the menu and display the requested form.

I'd like to standardize the system by having a central form 'shell' with command buttons located on the leftside of the shell. When a command button is clicked, the requested form displays within the shell window, which never is closed. Is this possible using switchboard? And is it possible without re-writing most of my existing code?

Thanks for any help...
Gary

To be honest, I don't believe that what you are asking is possible. I think you would have more success and would look more consistant with what most windows users are use to seeing by using menus instead to command buttons anyway (the switchboard just uses command buttons)
