[AccessD] Menu problems

Just a couple of guesses to try

CTRL+F11 Toggles between the custom menu bar and the built-in menu bar

There are ways to lose some bits that may require a reinstall of Access
One being, not holding the ctrl key down when dragging items to create a 
customized bar
This does a copy and not a move. A move can get lost.

There is a reset button in Tools Customize Options but I have never had 
to use.


You might try importing all objects to a band new mdb just in case mdb 
corruption is the cause.


You can try toggling the various ToolBars through code
Some are

DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Database", acToolbarYes
DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Menu Bar", acToolbarYes

Function ShowMenu()
On Error Resume Next
    DoCmd.ShowToolBar "Menu Bar", acToolbarYes
End Function

Function HideMenu()
On Error Resume Next
    DoCmd.ShowToolBar "Menu Bar", acToolbarNo
End Function


Function ShowToolBar()
On Error Resume Next
    DoCmd.ShowToolBar "Form View", acToolbarYes
End Function


Function HideToolBar()
On Error Resume Next
    DoCmd.ShowToolBar "Form View", acToolbarNo
End Function
