I'm not sure what you're asking -- if you mean, "how do I enable or 
disable
a menu item", that's easy:

    mnuFileOpen.Enabled =3D False (or True)

If you mean, "how can I create a scheme for user permissions that allows 
me
to enable or disable menu items as appropriate", then that's a bigger
question.  First, you need to know who is logged on.  Then you need a
permissions data source, where you can go to determine what a particular
user is entitled to see or do.

You'll need a logon dialog that captures a userid and validates it 
against a
userid table, and a userid table whose logical key is the userid where
additional information, such as user type and functional permissions can 
be
maintained.

Hi group,

 How I can enable or disable MDI menu based on some condition, say Type. 
 If
user is admin he should be able to see more menus (to get report etc) 
and
for general users limited options

 Thanks,

 Pankaj
