I see the following in another thread I started
and lost a couple of days earlier. Free Agent
sometimes is not everything I wish it were. If
I lose a thread - I have no clue how to get it
back again. So I googled and found paii, Ron
and Wayne Gillespie so graciously responded to my
Q...
To answer first, Wayne Gillespie - you were right.
The target machine DID have A97 installed on it.
I didn't realize all one had to do if one wished to
see the database window is to install A97 on the
machine running the runtime app. If that's all one
has to do, there's not much point in disabling it unless
you know for certain that target machines are not
running A97. Hmmm??? I could never say that with
certainty.
Now, for Ron Paii - can I implement what you suggested
programatically from code? What if I want the F-11 utility
or to open a debug window or pause execution - and I
choose to allow it if I'm the logged in user? I may even
base it on group membership. Can that be done?

Subject: A97 Runtime - I wish to disable F-11 key from displaying
database window
I did not know pressing F-11 key would open database
window in a runtime installation. I found it out by accident
today. How might I prevent this undesirable event?

2 ways, I use both!
1) Create a macro called "AutoKeys"
Under the Macro Name column create one called "{F11}" and assign
some do
nothing action.
2) In the database startup uncheck "Use Access Special Keys", visible
if you
click the Advanced button.

Realize you will also need to disable the default menu and tool bars,
they
also provide the ability to unhide the database window.

Are you sure you were running the db in a full runtime environment and
not on a machine with A97 installed?
In a true runtime environment the database window is never accessible
by ANY means.
