MS Access Forum / Forms / June 2008Form Properties
Is there a way to disable the Properties of a form without disabling the form? When someone right clicks on a button on the form, I don't want them to be able to make changes on the form. Any way to gray-out Properties?  Signatureareo Have you tried unchecking all of the boxes on the StartUp menu yet? >Is there a way to disable the Properties of a form without disabling the >form?

Hi.....I was hoping for a way to remove the Properties from the form elements WITHOUT going to the extreme of unchecking all the boxes on the startup menu. Its been my experience that once done, the unchecked aspect is forever and there is no way to go back and undo any of it. Am I correct?

Unless you disable it, you can just hold down a <SHIFT> key while opening your db and all of the startup code is bypassed. Then just go in to the Startup menu and check everything again if you want. >Hi.....I was hoping for a way to remove the Properties from the form elements >WITHOUT going to the extreme of unchecking all the boxes on the startup menu.
