 JL> Greetings Jim, tks for the reply...  one additional question... If I 
 JL> were to set up custom menus, would not the end user be able to add the
 JL> origional menu bar back to the application? or will the dev kit prevent
 JL> this...    or am I doing something wrong
        You're doing something wrong.  I've got an application that I wrote 
for another company that has the menus locked down nice and tight.  There's 
only one menu option and it's got two options under it ... print and quit.

        However, I've got to warn you that there's a hole in Access 2's 
security that'll allow people to get into the code.  I don't know what all 
your aims are here, but I figured I'd better mention it.
 JL> I only say this because I'v cunstructed custom menus, taken the 
 JL> databases 2 files and copied them onto another machine running another
        You loading the custom menus on startup of the database (AUTOEXEC 
macro)?  By the time a user can start using menus, they shouldn't have 
anything but your custom menu up there.
