Prevent or allow changes to all toolbars and menu bars

You can control whether users are able to change any built-in or custom toolbars and menu bars in a Microsoft Access file.

1. If you also want to prevent users from moving, sizing, or docking toolbars or menu bars, you must first set the appropriate properties in the Customize dialog box for each toolbar or menu bar in your application.
2. On the Tools menu, click Startup.
3. Clear or select the Allow Toolbar/Menu Changes check box.

Notes

• Changes to these settings in the Startup dialog box won't take effect until the next time the Access file is opened.
• This option does not affect toolbars for PivotTable lists or spreadsheets on a data access page.
