Can anyone help. I have written my application in visual basic 2005 and access database. my problem is i want users to have different menu items depending on their user profiles. How do I enable menu items like administration for administrator and disable it or hide it completetly for general users.

Regards

Dez

You can have the program retrieve the user type (admin, etc.) and have an 'If...then' statement that makes the menu items disappear (visible=false) or disable it (enabled=false). To access these properties, just click on the menu item and go to properties.

Thanks, The other thing can u enable the menu item and disable some subitems within that menu.

FormName.MenuItemName.enable = false
