Go to tools - customise and click New when the window opens. Name the new menu.

In the commands tab drag New Menu on to the new menu bar and rename it.
Then in the All Forms and All Reports list you can drag then onto this menu. While this window is open you can right click on any item on the menu and change its label etc.

You can also drag standard menus you wish to use onto the menu bar or create custom versions of them.

When you are happy with the menu bar close out of this window and go to Tools - Startup

Change the Menubar from (default) to your new menu bar name.

Is there any code out there to replace the Open File dialog in the common controls? Or, I would like to just make sure that the Explorer item in the context menu doesn't appear when the user right clicks on a folder. Any ideas? Thanks! Matthew Hanna

Hi all, I did make a script/css thing to replace the contextmenu on the website with a new one: http://www.djwice.com/contextmenu.html It works nice in MSIE, but on Netscape (and probable other browsers) it stays on the same place (does not "open'' where the mouse is). And the links do not work when you click on them. If anyone has sugestions on how to improve it, please let me know.

I have an Access 2K application that is distributed to about a dozen users (all with identical NT environments and identical Access versions, object libraries and service packs).

Been experimenting with menu items merging and it seems to me that all I need is Replace and Remove If the item is not already there Add, Merge and Replace all seem to add it. If it is already there, Replace and Merge seem to do the same thing (I normally wouldn't use Add if it might be there because I wouldn't want two). So why can't I always use Replace in place of Merge and Add? I figure there is a reason but haven't found it yet!

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...

Well this is a new one on me... Suddenly I can't get my "Find" and/or "Replace" window to appear on screen while I'm working on my VB.net code. These windows don't appear if I hit Ctrl-F, Ctrl-H... or if I try to summon them from the VB.net Edit menu. I have no idea what the problem is. One (possibly bad) guess: could these windows somehow have gotten positioned outside of my screen coordinates, causing them to appear somewhere I...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
