Hi,

Is there a way to hide the design view option on the menu from users without
having to create user accounts.

Please advise.
 
If users are opening the DB from a shortcut, you can include the /runtime
switch to hide all design features.

You can deploy the database in the .mde format ... this removes the ability to make any design changes to Forms/Reports
(but not tables and queries).

You can also remove the default menubar and replace it with your own, and add only the commands you wish your user to
see. Also remember to remove the Startup options associated with thos (Tools - Startup).
Please advise.

Thanks Scott.

I have created a database held on a server. However when the users access
the database some of the toolbars in which they are required to use are not
visible.

How do I ensure that the users are viewing the toolbars in which I have
set-up on the database? Does this involve overriding default settings on
their machines?
