Parts of Menu bar greyed out when .mde file is made for distribution

[Locoman]

Hi,

I develop and maintain a database on our network and recently replaced the full standard menus with just a custom Report Menu to prevent users tinkering (built with the usual Access menu wizards).

I have since found that the standard Access "Save As/ Export" function that I added to the menu works fine while developing the app, but once I converted it to an mde file for distribution this choice was greyed out.

Other than writing an equivalent menu in VB, is there anything in normal Access settings, etc., I may have missed here?

Any help gratefully received,

Regards,

Brian
