We can create custom groups, so that all of the objects that go together will appear next to each other. Regardless of whether they're forms, queries, tables or reports. To do this, we'll come up with a navigation pane and we'll open up this drop down menu. In the navigate to category section, I'm gonna change it from object type, which is the current default, to tables and related views. This will have Access group objects together based off of their relationship to each table. You can see we have a section here that's all about the guest's table, and then the section down here that's all related to the room assignments table. You'll also notice that we get duplicates of some objects such as the check in details query, that's related to both the guest table and again it's related to the room…
