Disabling menu whilst logon is present

[bernardmanning]

Hi, Newbie to .Net here

I have a simple app that has a main mdi form with a menu.

In the main application mdi form load event I've placed code to load a password signon screen.

However, even though I load the password screen as a modal form using showdialog, the menu options are all enabled.

This allows the user to select other menu options before they have logged in.

Is there a way to disable the menu items?

Ideally , I'd like to disable them all the menu options apart from the File / Exit option until the user has logged in.

Many Thanks, Bernie
