You need to go into the toolbar using View, Toolbars, Customize.  Select
the toolbar in question and then click the properties button.  From here
you can deselect the allow customizing option.  This should solve your
problem.

I'm back.  Must be 'bad penny' Friday.

I now have the db window hidden (thanks again Charlotte!), and have the
correct menu bar showing for the users.  However, anyone can right mouse
click on the menubar, click customize, and either modify the existing one
or create a new menubar with all the options that I've gone to the trouble
of hiding.  There has to be a way to disable this function in Access.  The
shortcut menus don't affect the tool bar or menu bar menu selection from
the right mouse click.  Turning off shortcut menus on the form does not
keep the Customize menu selection from appearing when clicked in the
toolbar area.

Ideally that menu customizing function should be turned off through the
code so it can't be restarted by anyone using the program (except the
programmer, of course...).

Am I barking up the wrong tree?  Is this possible?  Or do I need some
completely different route to get where I want?

TIA!
