Custom Menus

[kpryan]

Hi all,
Don't know if this is the correct place for this one.
Is it possible to disable custom menus. I don't want some of them accessed by staff.
What I have been doing is to remove them from the menu and giving some staff a different front end.
But it would be easier to hide or make them inoperatable. What is the best way to achieve this.

Many thanks,

KP

How are you removing custom menus? It should be very easy, simply unticking these items on Startup (Tools->Startup)will do it:

Allow Full Menus
Allow Default Shortcut Menus
Allow Built-in Toolbars

You can use a custom menu and / or toolbar. If these are set on startup, they will apply to all your forms etc.

These settings can also be changed via code.

Hi Remou
Many thanks for your reply.You gave a hint on how I should arrange my menus. I separated them so now I can select menus individually.

Hi, I found this article which has been a little helpful but what I want to do is disable or enable particular commands on my custom menu and not have the entire menu disappear.

This thread is not closed. I founfd it in the archives and decided to open it because my problem is similar but a little different. Instead of disable the entire "Customers" menu for instance, on my custom menu I want to disable or enable particular commands ( e.g. "New Customer") only.
