Is there a way to make any open forms/reports NOT show up as a separate item on the Windows start menu bar at the bottom of the screen? Basically, I need to make it so the ONLY way to close a form is by pressing the Close command button on the form. I have removed the Red "X" button on the top right side of the form, but users could still close the form by right clicking on that form in the task bar and choosing close. Thanks.
 
Menu Tools -> Options ... -> 1st tab:
Untick the windows in taskbar checkbox.

Hope This Helps, PH.
