Should hide the ribbon. Instead I get a 'Variable Not Found' error.
This should be simple.
How I can create my own Ribbon which include drop down menus?

View 14 Replies View RelatedIn 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 RelatedI'm using Access 2000. When I click the File menu to go to a recently used file, the entire path is shown. With my file system, the File drop down widow is about 50 characters too short to show the entire path all the way out to where I keep my database. Is there a way to shut off the viewing the entire path "feature?"
View 2 Replies View RelatedThere 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 use the following xml to create a ribbon for Sort and Filter
Code:
<customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui">
<ribbon startFromScratch="true">
<tabs>
<tab idMso="TabCreate" visible="false" />
<tab id="dbSearchtab" label="Sort and Filter" visible="true">
<group id="SearchScreenSort" label="Sort and Filter">
[code]....
The first problem is that this ribbon appears in forms where it is not included.The second problem is that in addition to the "File and Filter" tab, there appears a "File" tab Whe you click on it is goes backstage allowing you to Print and Exit.
Hey,
I've been working on my DB for some time(thanks for the help with that:) ) then one day I open it up and my file/edit/view etc menu is gone!
After trying to open with shift to see if I've disabled it by accident. with no joy i tried open access on its own not by the project file and its not there either.
After a quick google I've the apparent solution for this happening in word. (http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/MissingMenusEtc.htm)
But this doesn't seem to port to access.
Any help appreciated.
I have been trying to come up with a solution for a problem I am having for a while to no avail. We have a backend database that stores various tables full of data. We then have a custom Excel Ribbon that connects to the database and pulls in the different tables depending on the user selection form the ribbon. Everything is working well on that end. The problem I am running into though is that in the development phase of the ribbon and database we had multiple versions and so there are still some people who are using old versions of the ribbon and therefore not connecting properly to the database. Is there some type of code I can add into the database and ribbon where it checks for a specific version to ensure the user is using the most recent version?
Basically, before any type of query is run to connect to the database the ribbon would have some sort of label on it somewhere and the database would check for that label and if it is correct, the code proceeds and if not a message box appears that tells the user they are not using the most current version of the ribbon and exits the sub?
I have created a ribbon for the users on all forms, and named that ribbon on each form. While I can bypass the Main ribbon (hiding backstage and most other tabs) by holding the shift key on open, the minute I open a form I am stuck with the very limited form ribbon I've named. Is there a programmatic way I can ignore this call, either when holding the shift key or some other avenue?

On my form frmEmployeeDetails I have a text field that is named SSN for social security numbers. I have used the mask on it so it automatically inputs dashes. I am attempting to hide all but the last four digits of the ssn. This is on the on current event of my form.

I have an mdb file that is being used in Access 2013. The menu appears in the Add Ins as it is supposed to and it works for the most part. For some reason, it remains visible but is not clickable/operable after I do the following code. This all works flawlessly in earlier version of Access so it must something peculiar to 2013 (no surprise there....). hat would cause the ribbon to stop working, what to do when it does, and best of all, how to prevent it from occurring in the first place?

I'm working to put together a shortcut menu for a form that will be viewed as a datasheet. I'm trying to put together the vba to create the menu. I'd like a lot of the standard options i.e. sort a-z, filter toggle etc. I'd also like to add the menu option that is displayed in the default menu called "Text Filters". I've been unable to find the id code for that option, and since it, when chosen opens another menu, I'm not real sure how to code it. Here is what I have so far:
Sub CreateWIPShortcutMenu()
Dim cmbRightClick As Office.CommandBar
Dim cmbControl As Office.CommandBarControl
' Create the shortcut menu.
Set cmbRightClick = CommandBars.Add("cmdWIP", msoBarPopup, False, True)

I have a form with First name, Last name, Employee number, Information. The information box is a drop down menu with four options (contact, emergency, company, personal) I would like to be able to enter in search criteria for an employee using one of last name first name or employee number then choose an option from drop down box click a button to search and have it pull up just the info I needed.
I think I have two options but i am not sure which would be more efficient.
1. creating a query and using the criteria from design mode to have it filter the information. The only problem with this one is I do not know how to set it up with the drop down box from the form. Or would I need multiple querys for each option or just one with all of it?
2. writing code for the search button on the form that will bring up the appropriate query (I think I would then have to create a query for each drop down option)...
How do I remove items from a right click menu in access 2003? For example I need to remove the form view / design view button from a right click menu but i want to keep the hide/show columns button on the same menu.

I have a program.mdb with a customized menu bar from Database Creations.When I open program.mdb in 2007 & 2010 the ribbon is disabled and the custom bar is displayed as it should be and all is OK.When I open the same program.mdb in 2013 the ribbon is displayed and the custom bar is missing
I have a clean compile and get no error messages.How do I disable the ribbon and get the custom EZ Menu Bar to display in 2013?.Following are the Options, Current Database, Ribbon and Tool Bar Option settings that is used in all Access 2007, 2010 & 2013 versions
Ribbon Name:
Menu Bar:EZ Menu Bar
Shortcut Menu Bar:(default)

I have a form that i used the following code on to stop people accessing anything naughty:
Code:
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To CommandBars.Count
CommandBars(i).Enabled = False
Next i
This works great and gets rid of all the menu bars.
The problem is that it also stops the user getting the right click menu up in a datasheet view.
I assume i just need to enable the correct menu bar index number but i don't know what it is so my code would be:
Code:
CommandBars(X).Enabled = True
So do I need to bring back more than one command bar to get it working?
I know that ever since 2007 custom menus are not well supported as in 2003. From what I've read, outside to using 2003 to make changes, a person can create/update the menus using Commandbars in VBA.
Some coding to use Commandbars to create/update menus/toolbars for Access 2007/2010? It seems possible to do that, although I would expect it would be a lot of work. I've seen a few one-off examples to do specific updates, but so far nothing that would approach what was available in 2003.
