Hi All,
I'm doing a research/Project as part of my thesis on how to control MS office Applications (Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint) from VB only. When the user tries to access the above mentioned applications from anywhere(even from the start menu, or through following its path, or by typing e.g. winword from the command line.) besides my program, i want them to be inaccessible. In short i want it accessible from my application only. i have already designed the application.

This isn't really a VB question but a system administration question. Remove all those programs from the Start menu and any shortcuts that may be on the window. Its not completly foolproof but might reduce the chances that those products are accessible to the normal computer user.
