Question Create menu bar

[joeKra]

Hi,
i would like to create custom menu bars for my forms\reports can someone guide me how to do it i'm using access 2010

Thanks in advance.

Access 2010 doesn't do menu bars. You can create your own Ribbons.

See here for a tutorial (it says 2007 but it would be the same for 2010):

Thanks for reply !!

so basically there is no option for Right-Click menu, correct?

Here's the way for the Right-Click shortcut menus:

Hi Bob,

Nice to see you back.

Since we use command buttons why not consider creating a form like a Menu and run your commands off buttons from here. I'm not saying this is superior to the Menu Bar system only an alternative to think about but it can't be deprecated!

Hi Bob,

Nice to see you back.

Thanks, but I never completely left. I'm still around every once in a while. But there will be long times of me not being here also.[/QUOTE]
