Disabling Certain Menu Items According to User Group

[Brian Smith]

I want to able to keep existing menus intact as much as possible but I'd
like to disable certain items for people in some user groups. In particular,
I'd really like to block off access to the three items under Tools--Analyze
(Table, Performance and Documenter). Is something like this possible? I've
been searching the Help files and Google and can't seem to find any
discussions on the topic but it's possible I'm using the wrong search terms.

Thanks.

Brian

The CommandBars collection lets you get at the various toolbars. The
Enabled property of the CommandBar object lets you disable or re-enable
an option on a toolbar.

But personally, I would not manipulate the standard toolbars, if I
could avoid it. Instead, create your own toolbar(s) containing just the
options you want.

All of this is described under relevant terms in online help.

Maybe you need FindControl as well - I don't have Access here to check.
