MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / May 2008Disabling a menu item
I am trying to disable a menu item in Outlook, for example Print. I have found the controls and IDs of all menu items by enumerating the File menu. Example of what I have found below. What do I do with this now? I have the Outlook adm template installed but don't see exactly how to create a GPO to accomplish what I'm trying to do. Thank you. http://www.outlookcode.com/codedetail.aspx?id=1507 CommandBar: Menu Bar &File (Submenu) - 30002 CommandBar: File Ne&w (Submenu) - 30037 CommandBar: New Item &Mail Message - 1757 Fa&x Message - 5675 &Appointment - 1106 Meeting Re&quest - 1754 &Contact - 1099 Distribution &List - 5435 &Task - 1100 Task &Request - 2006 &Journal Entry - 1990 &Note - 1758 Internet Fa&x - 9409 &Post in This Folder - 2687 Ch&oose Form... - 1910 S&end - 3037 . . .

In the Group Policy Editor, go to the User Configuration/ Administrative Templates/ Microsoft Office Outlook 2003/ Disable items in User interface/ Custom node. Open the Disable command bar buttons and menu items policy, then dick Show. Click Add, type in the numeric ID for the command you want disabled and click OK.

That accomplished exactly what I wanted. Thank you again! > this is 2003, right?

Suppose I should have asked that before I turned something off :( > this is 2003, right?

At first I deleted the numerical entry from the setting but left the setting enabled. When that didn't work I disabled the setting - still no luck. Then I added the numerical setting back and left setting enabled. After a workstation reboot I disabled the setting this time leaving the numerical value in place. Still no luck. > probably remove it from the policy and reboot. > [quoted text clipped - 47 lines] >>>> Propert&ies - 750 >>>> &Close - 2011 |
