Disabling hotkeys

How do you prevent someone from using Ctrl+, (ctl + comma) or Ctl + . (Ctl +
perios) to get to design view. I have all the normal properites turned off
(Access special keys, F!!, etc) but nothing seems to stop that one. I tired
using AutoKeys to remap it, but I keep getting "Invalid Syntax" or "Invalid
keystroke combination". Most of these new hotkeys are really for developers
and we should be able to stop end users from using them. I really don't
want to go to every form and write code for the KeyPress event. What is the
best way to stop this key combination?

Thanks.

re: Disabling hotkeys


Hello,

I think there was a special macro where you can
define hotkeys and redefine hotkeys. Look for help
in the macro-secten of the access-help
