James,
Right click on any empty area of the tool bar to the left of the "Type a
question ..." box. A popup window will appear - ignore it, for now. Now,
right click on the box that says "Type a question ...". Another little
popup will appear with a Check Box next to the text "Show Ask a Question
Box". Uncheck the check box and then close the other popup window.
hth,

I saw no check box. After right clicking on the "Type a question..." box I
only get another context menu - Cut, Copy and Paste.

You need to right click on an empty area of the Access menu bar first and
select Customize. When the Customize window opens, leave it open and then
right-click on the combo box (help search) in the upper right hand corner of
the menu.
The only way I could duplicate the behavior you report (menu with cut, copy
paste) is if I right click on the box without first having opened the
Customize window.

Ok, I left out selecting customize.
Thanks for your assistance.
Thanks again,
