Hi

In most of our forms, if the end user uses any of these options, the form, application, will not work properly

File -> Merge Forms

Edit -> Undo

Edit -> Redo

Can I disable these, including the related shortcut keys, menu items, toolbar buttons, etc.

Thanks.

Merging can be disabled by going to Tools>Form Options. On the General Tab
in the middle is a check box for enabling form merging. Uncheck the check
box.

Not sure about disabling undo and redo.

Undo/Redo: try to make it so the user can do this properly. That's why
they're in a rich editing environment, after all. If you can't, you can
probably trap the OnBeforeChange (?) event and if it's an undo/redo, cancel
the operation.

You can remove items with the Office commandbars OM, but that's
application-global, not per-solution.

I found how to disable one of them using OnMergeRequest :-)
