ALL menus disabled on startup?

[Dennis]

In Access 2002, I want there to be NO menus visible or available on
application startup. I want them all turned off, even the standard MS Access
menu. Is that possible? If so, how?

Thanks!

No problem. Just go to Customize, new menu, call it "blank" or something,
set the properties to Menu. Close Customize. Click Startup, and select
Blank as your menu, (disable other options so Access menu does not show
up). Have a form that opens when db starts. That should get you started.
Shift key will open your db with all menus available, should you need to
work on the db.

Use a bunch of lines like:

DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Menu Bar", acToolbarNo

I also recommend that you create a back door mathod of
turning them back on (I use a hot key macro).
