Application menu and Form menu

[abouddan]

Hi all

My request has two faces:

1- I need to create my own menu in my project that runs when the application is start. But I want that menu to starts manuly, I mean by runnig codes so I can manage that menu. The reason of that is to prevent or to allow specific users to use one or more menu options.
ex: User1 can see : File, Edit and Help
User2 can see: File, Edit, view, tools and Help

2- How can I create my own Menu In the main Form. So not an application menu it's a form menu.

if there is anything not clear please ask.
thanks

1. View ==> Toolbars ==> Customize ==> Toolbar Name ==> Properties ==> Menu Bar
2. Add items as so desired
3. Form ==> Properties ==> Menu Bar = New Menu Bar Name

Once you have your menu's created you can view this thread and it should help with the rest of your coding. If you have any questions let us know.

Enable and Disable option in Toolbar or Menu to certain user.

Thanks For the support

I did What ADezzi said, I maid the menu and I added the items needed and from the form properties/others/menu I added the new menu. But I think there something more, when runnig the form the menu appears all alone not as a part of the form. I want that menu to be attached to this form and nothing else.

Position the Toolbar where you want it, then:
View ==> Toolbars ==> Customize ==> Select Toolbar ==> Properties ==> Set Docking Options to Can't Change

Any Help?

I tried those solutions to create a menu in the form, nothing worked.

To attach a Menu Bar to a specific Form:

1. Forms
2. Your Form
3. Design
4. Properties
5. Other
6. Menu Bar = <your menu bar name>
