Disable Office and Minimize buttons in an Access Form

[buckeyebob10]

I am using an Access program in an secure area and don't want anyone to mess with the screen. For a amateur user how can I do this? I don't find anything in "Options" other than disabling tabs, navigation and full menus. Thanks.

there are tons of more on this site and there is another one that I think NeoPa (mybe not NeoPa... having a long day already) used in another thread that used the windows login however, I can't seem to find it today... hopefully NeoPa will follow-up with that link...

And be aware that because of the nature of Access, whatever you do can be undone by the user.

As a further requirement, I have a form that has a lookup table for users to locate their name. It is an unsecured computer that I want people to use but not be able to do anything but use the lookup table. I do not write any code but have designed what I have from the menus within Access, which I have used for a long time. But no code.
