Here is the problem, i do not want people to be able to print like say a full customer list etc. My theory in solving this problem was to create custom menus which i have. I happened to stumble across and individual who had the full menu open and i proceeded to ask how he had done it. He explained that he just hit right click on the menu bar and showed the default menu. I did not even think of that when i designed this. So my question here is how to disable right click and maybe even disable CTRL P, noone knows about it but you never know :).... Bill
 
Hi!

In the database window, choose Tools/Startup. This will bring you to a window where you can turn off the shortcut menus (right click popup menus), full menus and the advanced button will allow you to disallow special keys. For development purposes you can use the shift key when you open the db and everything will be available. If you want to disallow the shift key too then look up AllowByPassKey in help to find code to disallow it. You can also search the FAQs on this site since I am sure someone posted the appropriate code.
