Enable Menu items

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

Re: Enable Menu items

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.
