Please help me ...
I saw an ACCESS program having their own menu like
File, Edit, View, etc... I mean they changed it to other
names like Login(instead of File), Links (instead of Edit), etc...
How to create forms having your own menu design, so that
when you click on those items, you can open forms, reports, etc...
any comments?idea?

It's a fairly simple process.
First - create macros that do what you want.
Then customize your toolbars (right click near the toolbar and choose
customize)
Add a "Custom" one, then go to it's properties and in the "On Action"
bit, put in the name of the macro.
There's a tiny bit more to it than that - but play around, you'll get
what you want fairly quickly.

Are you looking to create a menu or a switchboard??
If you want a menu right click on a menu or tool bar and choose customize
and click New. Then click Properties to change the type from Toolbar to
Menu Bar. Click Close and choose the Commands tab where you will be able
to add specific or custom commands to your Menu Bar; like from the File
choice drag Custom to your menu bar then right click on Custom and choose
properties to set the action (which can be either a macro or function).
If you want a switchboard create a form with a Command Button on it and
add code like this to the Click event:
DoCmd.OpenForm "Form2"
Hope this helps....

You can create a new menu using the new menu tools. Then attach that menu
to certain forms and or reports and there you have it. In the start up
portion of options, you can disable some menus as well. If this is what you
are talking about, I can write in more detail.
