Question Anyway to get rid of standard toolbar without creating a custom one to substitute?

[catbeasy]

Hello

Trying to get rid of the Form View toolbar but only for a particular form.

However, when I do so (by right clicking on the grey area next to my new custom menu bar and deselecting Form View), it applies to all my databases.

I don't really have need of a replacement, custom toolbar; would be quite happy with just my custom menu bar appearing on that particular form when it is activated. I don't want it to apply to other forms though and certainly not other databases.

Or can I not do this? Does Access (97) make you create a custom toolbar and then designate it as the Toolbar a form will use (through Form-properties-other and the selection of the name of the custom toolbar)?

Thanks for any assistance..

It can be done but it's rather fiddly needs a couple of functions and the ability to be able to edit the custom toolbar's close button to add a call to one function, fancy the challenge

I think I'll pass for now. Maybe on the next one when I can devote some time to it. Thanks for the offered assist though!

Maybe you are getting it from wrong end?

Just show your form in dialog mode full-screen-sized. User will not be able to switch to Access until he copes with this form.

Or hide the toolbar when that form is opened, and then unhide it when the form is closed? That will only take a few lines of codes.
