Hello,

I have nearly finished a complete application, consisting of several workbooks and vba-projects.

* The worksheets have sheet-protection,
* all toolbars have been programmed visible = false,
* the "Worksheet Menu Bar" has been disabled
* the workbooks have workbook-protection,
* the vba-properties have been set to protect from viewing

The user still has access to the taskbar. The user should not be able to start another program while using my application (to avoid problems of not enough memory.) Does anyone know vba-code to make the taskbar disappear?

Thank you in advance,

Greetings from Holland,

Don't know if you can hide the taskbar but have you tried

Application.DisplayFullScreen = True

this will place Excel Over The taskbar David Lerwill
"If at first you don't succeed go to the pub"
 
to David Lerwill:

This code (Application.DisplayFullScreen = True) is already in the program. The results you get depend on the settings of the taskbar-options that were choosen before the application starts. If it was set to "automatically hide" it will be available during the application.

Thanks anyway for the suggestion.

Kind regards,

Rudo
