Help - Urgent - Disable Printing

[MrsNic]

Hi

I have asked this question before, got a reply but I couldn't get the code to work. I have produced a very simple library database that I want to put on the school network.

I don't want the pupils to be able to print reams of data about the books, just view them on screen. I know they can use printscreen but this will only print the page one at a time. The librarian may want to print occasionally.

I need to demonstrate this tomorrow and can't spend any more time trying things out!

I would be grateful for any thoughts.

Cath

You will have to disable all the standard menus, including shortcut menus through the startup options.

You might also want to consider preventing the user pressing Ctrl+P too.

First look at Tools, Startup, Allow Access Special Keys as an option. More likely, you'll want to handle special key presses more robustly though. See

on how to do this.
