RE: Revert to std menus/toolbars during runtime

I'm not sure you can revert to normal menus without restarting Access,
However, take a look at the following link to code which allows a password
entry.

Also try Googling for Access Shift Bypass, you will no doubt find loads of
help.

Hope this helps a little

Kindest Regards

Hi all, thanks in advance for any pointers.

I was curious if anyone knows of a way to programmatically restore Access
default menus and toolbars (same as holding 'shift' on startup).

I'm working on a project that will have about 5 users on different
computers, and have the startup options set so noone can get to the
code/tables all that easily (luckily, none of the users are powerusers of
access).

Ideally, if there is a major unhandled error that comes up on a user's
interface, I could have a semi-hidden & password protected function that
would restore the standard properties for the active application, in which
case I would be able to debug it at my leisure.

Not too big of a deal either way (I'm really hoping not to need it), but it
would be nice to include.

Thanks!
