Remove Microsoft Access "Help" box 3

[Embo]

Does anyone know how to remove the "Type a question for help" box from Microsoft Office XP and above products?

I have several access databases that I have custom toolbars on and I would like to remove this feature if possible.

Cheers

I don't think you can!! But possible to hide menubar. What I did is creat a custom menubar and attach it to the form in the property box then on open event removed it. by code below.

[b]DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Addressbook", acToolbarNo[/b]

orna, I can't find this option. Which version you are talking about? I can't see it in either Access 2002 or 2003. I can't even find the "type.."

I am sorry I was searching for "type" tab/command/label/textbox in the Customize dialog.
You have to rightclick onthe search box in the menubar.
Thanks for that tip & a

You also need to stop the user customizing the menubar.
