hi
i'm having a problem with the customize a shortcut menu. i read the ms
office assistance: customize a shortcut menu/delete a command or add
to a shortcut menu and followed the simple directions. i tried both
but for some reason i cannot delete the categories called "filter",
"form", etc. eventually i would like to add commands to the "custom"
category, ie commands "filter by form, "filter for:" and "filter by
excluding" options and group it under one category within custom
called "Research".
however, everytime i drag the category off of the menu, i have an "X"
instead of a "+" sign. and finally i cannot figure out where i can
rename the does this make any sense?? do i have something locked in my
shortcut menus that i cannot rename, add or delete the commands and
categories?
eventually i would like the shortcut menus to look like the following:
custom | research | commands: "filter by form, "filter for:" and
"filter by excluding"
if anyone knows why this has become a difficult task, any suggestions
would be appreciated.
thanks in advance!!! jung 2 3800
Never customise a native Access menu: you don't have control
over these menu's. Instead, create a new shortcut (popup)
menu, and adjust the menu property of the form/report.
When you need to delete an item, drag it to the 'customise
menu' form, and drop it there. To add items, drag from
the 'customise menu' form to your menu. Also rename menu's
from this form.

While reading through the "shortcuts" topic in the help, I saw that there's
a "Format Document" option - CTRL+K, CTRL+D. Cool... so I go into a .cs
source file (this is a winforms project) and hit those keys.
The status bar tells me "The key combination (Ctrl+k, Ctrl+D) is not a
command." Weird... I then check the Edit menu->Advanced. Format Selection is
there, but Format Document isn't.
Ok, so I go into Customize... verify that the...

I don't know if this is possible but what I would really like to do is

Any help would be much appreciated.

I'm trying to prevent any built-in command bars or menu bars from appearing
in an Access MDE.
I have the following code on the Form_Open event of the app's main form:
CommandBars("Menu Bar").Enabled = False
This works, but if a user has been using Access with a tool bar visible
(Form/Report
Formatting, for example) prior to opening my MDE, that tool bar is still

Trying to do a simple little form and do searches using the filter by
form. Instead of clicking on the icon, I would prefer a keyboard
shortcut to enable Filter by Form - can't find one - so tried assigning
an access key to do so. Here's what I tried:
- since alt-F will activate the File menu, I moved the ampersand in the
name box (toolbars, customize, name box) to the l - typing alt-l while
in the form does nothing

I've been clicking around Access 2007 Beta 2 and can't see the custom
menu bar designer. Is it in the beta? Maybe I'm blind. The question
that comes to mind is: Will custom menu bars be the same height as they
were in previous versions or will they be the "ribbon" style that takes
up a huge portion of the screen?
Also when I use Access 2007 to open an Access 2003 database that has
custom menu bars they display as they did in Access...

I've been having a click around Access 2007 this afternoon and have
discovered some things that range from annoying to alarming. My
Access 2003 menu bars, which I, like many others, use extensively, are
now hidden behind an "Add Ins" tab on the Ribbon. Hardly an intuitive
place for a user to find them. Unless my memory is failing me, I'm
sure that Access 2003 menus displayed normally in the 2007 Beta.
The other thing I've discovered...

Office 2007 & thus Access has had it's menus replaced with the Ribbon
Bar. It's very disconcerting. In Word, Excel, Access, I feel totally
lost. Also all the shortcut Menu pulldowns don't work anymore ...
eg
Alt F-S to save a file
Alt F-U for Page Setup in Word/Excel
etc. etc.

I have 2 apps; one written in A97, the other in A2003. If I open an app
in A97 then close it, then open Explorer and dbl-click on the A2003 mdb,
I'm informed it's an unrecognized format. If I open an app in A2003 and
close it, then dbl-click on the A2003 app in Explorer, it opens fine.
Is there a way for opening an app in explorer to use the correct version
of Access to open it?
