The menu bar is a propery of each form, so you can create a menu using
the menu builder wizard and set each form to use that.

Alternatively you can turn it off, e.g. in VBA

docmd.ShowToolbar "menu bar",acToolbarNo

Or using the ShowToolbar method in a macro if that's your bag.
Personally I design a form to fit into the window so I prefer to give
a blank menu bar to the plebes so that the same amound of screen real
estate is taken up for plebes and power users alike (but then I also
stick project and language selectors in that bar anyway so it's needed
for both).

It shouldn't come back unless there's some code that specifically
tells it to come back.

Try creating a menu using the wizard, then set the menubar property of
each form to that menu.
