Hey there, does any one know some VBA code that will disable the right click in word 2007? I know you can in excel catch the event but not sure about word. Thanks in advance for time and help.
 

Why would you want to do that? Take away the functionality that users expect to have in Word.

Have fun.

My sentiments as well.

I agree typically 100% of the time, but its a local thing that they would like to see here so people cant right click on it on this one document. This is not a webbased open to tons of people thing. If some one can help that would be great.
 

So you want to disable the right-click to prevent people from Copy, for example? If so, what about Ctrl-C to do the same?

The question is - if 'they' do not want people to do something in Word, why not give them a PDF document instead?

I know this is NOT an aswer you want, but if you state WHY then there may be a better solution to your request......

Have fun.

An analogy:

You give the user a hammer and then prevent the user from using the hammer in the way a hammer is designed to be used.

Give them a nerf ball instead, so that they may bring harm upon themselves or others!
