Can you hide the design view in the menu bar in access

[jbanas]

I know how to hide the menu bar in access; but is it possible to hide certain options in the menu bar other than creating a new toolbar.

thanks

You could perhaps edit the existing menu with the commandbar object (maybe, it has been years since I looked at it). But then you are probably changing the default selections for Access.

I would use a custom toolbar. It is a lot less hassle than dealing with the commandbar object.

A crude way to disable ANY design view is to have an MDE.

Hope This Helps, PH.

How are ya jbanas . . .

Which items are you intent on hiding? [blue]lameid[/blue] is on target with the [blue]Commandbar Object[/blue].

Example to hide the standard edit menu on the menubar:

[blue]   CommandBars("Menu Bar").Controls("Edit").Visible = False[/blue]

Example to hide [blue]Spelling[/blue] in the [blue]Tools Menu[/blue]:

[blue]   CommandBars("Menu Bar").Controls("Tools") _
                          .Controls("Spelling...").Visible = False[/blue]

See Ya! . . . . . .
