Ah that Thingy Dingy! I thought it was the ? next to the max minimize
icons on a form
not the Access menu command bar.
This will toggle it in code, found name in object browser then looked
it up in help.
Sub ToggleAskQuestionDropdown()
With Application.CommandBars
If .DisableAskAQuestionDropdown = True Then
.DisableAskAQuestionDropdown = False
Debug.Print "ask question turned on"
Else
.DisableAskAQuestionDropdown = True
Debug.Print "ask question turned Off"
End If
End With
End Sub
