    Code for button to show Navigation Pane

    Hello,

    After disabling the hotkeys and hiding the menus and the ribbon. I have an Admin form which requires a username and password to access. I was wondering if anyone knows of any code for a button to enable the Navigation Pane so I can access the tables/modules to make updates on things and also code to disable it again. I'm doing this because I have multiple users are accessing this database and I don't want people around touching things in the backend except me.

    THanks.

    Why not just F11 keypress to unhide after you've set the show property to False (unchecked in Nav Pane options)? Or has this changed since my old 2007 version?

    As far as I can tell F11 collapses it to the side but it doesn't actually hide it

    after you've set the show property to False
    This property is still applicable next time db is opened (pane is still hidden). So F11 only exposes is true but once the users open their version (it is a split db I presume) their version is still hidden. Even if they're sharing one front end, this would be true.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
