I am trying to find a way to hide the close button on the ribbon. My 2007 and 2010 users keep closing the database by the "x" and it's driving me nuts. I have an exit on the switchboard. I tried to disable navigation and ribbons under options and it hides everything except the x. I tried the code:
Code:
Docmd.Showtoolbar "Ribbon", acToolbarNo
In the startup form. Still doesn't give me what I want.
I need to disable or hide the restore, minimize and close window buttons found in the top right hand corner of a form.
I navigation buttons that controls open, close etc already set up.
There seems to be some inconsistency in controlling the ribbons in Access 2013.I have managed to use the USysRibbons custom table and XLM to hide the ribbon in one app, but when I set the same config up in another db's the ribbon wont hide.
I've then made an empty db and tried in this and it still wont hide.What are the "current db" setting that must be set to make the ribbon hide?
I'm getting ready to deploy my database and I would like to Hide the "Home" tab and replace it with a custom tab with just the bare minimum of options. I have alreadyused the access options to hide the other tabs that re normally visible, but can't find how to hide the "Home" tab.

I'm currently building a database in Access 2013. I've used Access many years ago, and not really in anger since maybe 2003, so I've been re-learning quite a lot. Here's an overview of my scenario, and issue:
The main purpose of my database is to allow engineers to log various bits of information when building, servicing and testing manufactured products for offshore exploration. Because some of the engineering team aren't so great with data entry etc, I've decided that, rather than deleting data, I'm going to use a 'deleted' flag: user clicks what he considers to be a delete button, but in reality an update query will simply update the flag and, because the form is built on a query which includes a 'where deleted = 0' filter, it'll no longer be shown. This will allow us more control over the data and will also allow me to check that everything is running okay.
My main forms include a number of subforms, including one which includes a second tier of nested form: Pin Maps for (electrical) Connectors.
What I need to achieve is fairly straightforward: as the user navigates around the form, I'd like a 'delete' button which is specific to that subform to become visible and for any other 'delete' buttons to become hidden. Once tested, the buttons would be 'stacked' in the same position at the top of the main form, so the user just thinks they're deleting the relevant record in the sub, or main, form.
In Access 2010 I made a custom ribbon.The File Tab still gives users access to features that should not be available to them such as: Compact & Repair, Encrypt etc.I spent a few hours looking for a solution but found none that works.It does not seem to be possible to hide the File Tab, but is there a way to hide the options it reveals?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe user wants all the non-basic functionality of the ribbon hiden. To accomplish that by doing the usual stuff:
File >> Options >> Current Database >> Allow Full Menus (unchecked)
Everything worked as expected, but we came across an issue. The user needs to open a report in "print preview" and they need to be able to export their report to excel. The "print preview" ribbon tab is there, but it is not showing the "Data" area, where all the export options are.
How can I do this without a costume ribbon?
Maybe there is a way of manipulating which areas of the ribbon/tabs/areas/controls are enabled from VBA?
i have built an application , all i have is one main form and every action take place inside it. Before making it as .accde file for code protection, i want to hide table pane, navigation ribbon, the Main form Tab. i.e only Main form should open like a applicaiton and not inside access as a tab.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello everyone,
Ran into a problem trying to disable a forms min/max/close menu.
I'm trying to disable the forms close button I.e X on top of the form. I'd like to keep the min & max there so I've been trying to use the following.
Me.CloseButton=False
I get "You cannot set a value to this" error. Also tried Me.Closebutton.Enabled=False and get errors.
Anyone have a bit of code on how to do this or at least explain what I'm doing wrong here?
Thx.

Hi,
I can hide buttons on a form but what I want is to hide/ show it when one of the fields has a specific value.
Cheers

I would like to have 3 buttons on a form. When clicking Button1, Button2 and Button3 should be shown and Button1 hidden. When clicking Button3, Button2 and Button3 should be hidden and Button1 shown.
How can I do this when it is not possible to manage the object being clicked? I tried the following which did not work because of managing an object clicked is not allowed.
Code:
Private Sub Button1_Click()
Button1.Visible = False
Button2.Visible = True
Button3.Visible = True

How to disable the Minimise, Restore and Close Buttons at the very top right hand corner of the Access application?
I have got buttons on my database to open / close everything so no need for them, even to hide the full Title bar probably be okay.
I am running Access 2007.
I'm trying to alter the look of my menu Menu Image.JPG. Depending on the User's Permission setting from the Table PermissionTable.JPG.
If they do not have permission for a company then, i want it to be hidden from the menu?
I would like to hide/unhide the navigation pane completely by using two buttons (pop the hood & close the hood) in a form. At this moment I used the following code:
Private Sub Command77_Click()
DoCmd.SelectObject acTable, , True
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdWindowHide
End Sub
Private Sub Command78_Click()
DoCmd.SelectObject acTable, , True
End Sub
This however makes my form shut down and not my navigation pane.
i have the following code that hides 5 buttons depending if the user has permission which works fine.im trying to incorporate an IF statement if there is only 1 of the buttons visible then to automatically click the button. but if there is more than 1 do noting?
Code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim rsO As DAO.Recordset
Set rsO = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT tblUserPermission.UserFK, tblUserPermission.CompanyFK, tblUserPermission.Permission " & _
"FROM tblUserPermission INNER JOIN tblUser ON tblUserPermission.UserFK = tblUser.UserPK " & _
"WHERE Username = '" & Me.txtName.Value & "'")
[code]...
I can't figure out Form Filters. Basically I have a load of controls on the form. The first control I select I'm able to click the Filter button on the Ribbon and get shown a load of checkboxes to filter the field on (see capture.png)On subsequent controls, clicking the Filter button on the ribbon doesn't show the checkboxes for that control (see capture2.png).
View 6 Replies View RelatedIn Access 2007.I have a Main Form with (1) subforms that have a differenet .RibbonName set. When switching focus to the subforms, the Ribbon Tab for the Main Form stays active and the subform's Ribbon is not activated. I have put the ribbons assigned to the subforms on a main form, and they activate as expected. This is a major issue to which I can find nothing on the web!If i open subform directly, ribbon functioning fine
-Allow Full Menus = false;
-start from scratch = true;
I want to restrict the users to only be able to access certain tabs in the ribbon .example "user1" cannot access the external tab and the create tab, but can access all others.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have disabled the Ribbon using XML code in the USysRibbon table. Everything has worked fine, except that now when I click on two different tabs that exist on my form, the Form Tools Ribbon pops up with options to go to Layout, Design View, etc., and other options, too.
I have two subforms on this tab, but neither one has a Ribbon Name set (I didn't even know how to do that when I made them) where to look to see why this is happening. The Ribbon does not show at all on the other tabs like it is supposed to. It only shows when I click on my 3rd and 4th tabs, and then it disappears again when I click on other tabs.
When I open my split form, the 'Find' command is disabled in the ribbon.

I’m new here and I have a question for you..
Is it possible to place round buttons or oval buttons on your forms instead of the normal square ones?
Greets,

When you open a form in datasheet view, the default ribbon is of course the "Datasheet" tab. I would rather have the "Home" tab ribbon open up, because I have one field in this form set up as hyperlinks to open another form, so the filter and search buttons would be more useful to the user. I'd rather not go to the trouble to create a custom ribbon, so is there anyway to set the default ribbon tab to "Home" when you load the form? There is a ribbon property for the form, but I don't know the reference name for the tab.

Should hide the ribbon. Instead I get a 'Variable Not Found' error.
This should be simple.
Where can I find the Hex or RGB value for the blue colour that Access 2010 uses by default for buttons on forms? I need to change some buttons to yellow (I know the code for that) but later change them back to the previous shade of blue, which is shown in the Properties pane "Accent 1, Lighter 40%".
By clicking in the standard colors area at the bottom of the colour chooser I can find a very similar blue #D6DFEC but it doesn't look quite right. And the "accent" colour does not give me a Hex value.Is that "usual" blue even one colour? How can I reset a button to that style having changed it?
