the same problem, but with an office of about 70 people! --

Unfortunately, no joy. Tried to open several databases while holding down
Shift, and even created a new blank database and did likewise. All of them
opened without the menu bar.

I did determine that if *I* log onto her computer with *MY* ID and create a
database, it has the menu bar, so there is apparently some pesky setting out
in the registry somewhere or in her user profile that says when SHE launches
a database, no menu bar, please. I had her completely uninstall and
reinstall Office/Access hoping it would take her back to default settings,
but no luck, the gremlin is still lurking out there.

So I'm back to "Hel-l-lllp!!!"

Have you tried holding the SHIFT key down while opening your database? If
you do that you should be able to get to the TOOLS > STARTUP to reset the
settings.

One of the users of my databases also has another .mdb with custom menus and
toolbars. Best I can figure out, when she launched that database it hid the
standard menubar, but now it's hidden in MY databases too. I've had her try
Rightclick-Customize-Menubar-Reset, no luck. Also tried Application.Menubar
= "" via the VBA Immediate window, again no luck. Short of having her
completely uninstall and reinstall MSOffice/MSAccess, any suggestions about
(1) getting her menubar back and (2) preventing it from vanishing again every
time she launches that other database?
