I have a custom menu bar that I seem to be having trouble deploying with the
database. This type of custom object is kept in the System.mdw correct? I
have a target machine that won't let go of the original custom menubar that
I created. Even when I remove the existing system.mdw, it seems to get
re-created the next time I open Access, BUT it doesn't include the new menu
bar, which leads me to believe that the program isn't creating this file.
Any idea how to re-deploy the system.mdw so it actually works?
Thanks!

NO! System.mdw is the default Workgroup Information File that ships with
Access. It stores user and group information for User-Level Security and
has nothing to do with custom menus.

AIUI, from A2k on, if System.mdw can't be found then Access will re-create
it, but you're on the wrong tack with this problem anyway.

Forget about system.mdw, the problem lies elsewhere.

Did you actually create a NEW menu bar or did you modify a built in one?
New menu bars travel with the file and are only visible in that file.
Customizations to built in menu bars are NOT part of the file. They are
visible only on the PC where the customization was done in ALL files viewed
on that PC.

Per Jozef: Any idea how to re-deploy the system.mdw so it actually works?
First off, rename/copy the one you want to use and call it something like
Jozef.mdw.
Then I'd take what steps re needed to associate that .MDW with the instance of
MS Access in question.
I'm dancing around the way to do this bc I can't think of it right now.... but
renaming to Jozef.mdw will allow you to check it while in MS Access (probably
via one of the SysCmd calls).

It's a "new" custom one.
