Barcode input form

[computersnack]

I have a barcode input form. I want the textbox to be the only thing that could possibly ever have the focus. Even if someone accidentally clicks on something else, I don't want the focus to change. I also want to know if there is a way to make sure this app is always active in Windows and never able to be closed or something taking the focus away from my barcode input form. Thanks in advance for your help.

'Never able to be closed' is not possible considering Windows Task Manager can be used to close any app.

Access can be configured to hide navigation pane, disable shortcut menus, disable function keys, hide the ribbon, disable the X close and File > Close, even the Access app frame can be made invisible. Some can be done with Access option settings, some require advanced code techniques. Then there is the option to publish the db as an executable.

Your textbox could be the only data entry control on the form and no button controls, disable the navigation bar, disable the X close, disable the record selector, disable the scroll bars.
