Always a good thing to provide details as to version of Office and operating system.

Uncheck allow default shortcut menus


This will disable the right click for the database which what I suspect you are trying to do to prevent form changes?

You should also consider converting a copy of the database to the executable, wherein you can leave the above option as is and yet prevent the changes to any forms, tables, code.
