One of the properties of the individual toolbar/menubars is Allow Customizing and another is Allow Moving. If both of those are turned off for each toolbar/menubar that should stop the users from shooting themselves in the foot, at least in your application.

I'm not sure how to do this, or if it can even be done. Currently using Access 97 on WinXP. The application is a secured (through access workgroup/users) database front end. At this point, I have no customized toolbars or menus, just using the standard ones. The client has found that some of the users have messed with the toolbars (dragged them off to who knows where...) and afterwards can't get to them when they really do need them. I eventually plan to have customized toolbars and menubars for them, but this question will apply to them as well, even though they're not ready yet. Is there a way to lock the menubar and toolbar in place using vb code or some other way of automatically locking them? I know it can be done in Access on each workstation, but these pc's are all over the place and I don't want to tell their MIS that he has to go around to each computer and lock the toolbars in place. That would gain me MORE than just a dirty look. Explicit hand signals might be involved.... Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA!
