Is there any way that I can 'hide' the 'All Records' section of the Action Bar ?
I know that I can hide the whole action bar, but my only problem if I do that comes if I try to use a form to do a Find. Then I cannot use the OK / CANCEL options which come up on the Action Bar.

What I'm trying to do is stop my users from accessing ALL records.

Any Ideas ?

Thanks --- Jerry ---

 
The Action Bar is "all or nothing", with no way to hide the "All Records" option.

But your users can use the Enter or Esc for Ok and Cancel - just a little training would be needed.

Note that if a User does a manual find and they enter <> in a field that always has data in it, they will get &quot;All Records&quot; anyway!

So perhaps what you want to do is have them enter their Find criteria into variable-type fields and then you set up the Find as a Named Find/Sort for them. This way you could check the variables in a macro to see if they are OK before running the Find.
