Hi,

I have created a multi-user database and want to disable
the Shortcut keys for users but not 'Admins'

Does anyone know if there is a piece of code to change the
Startup settings depending on the User-Type?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Steve.
 
Well, there is code to change the startup settings, but the problem is that the
settings are changed for the NEXT time the database runs.

In theory, you could check the "User-Type" and check the settings. If they
didn't match, you could set the settings the way you want them, alert the user
that the database had to be restarted, and then quit the database.

Of course, this assumes that you have a separate copy of the front end available
for each user.

Is that enough to get you started?
 
John,

Thanks for the reply.

There is a seperate front end for each user.

This was a thought for the times that the
frontend 'crashes' and I need to open the DB window to see
what the problem is. I will just keep it 'as is' for
now. I amend the problem on my front end and copy the
updates back to the users Frontends. It just means
changing the start up settings before copying.

Thanks anyway,
Steve.
