Personalize ToolBars and Icons

Hello Phorum,

How can i do to desactivate some commands in order to prevent users from using them .
For example , i don’t want them to see the Rotation icon ,the manager reports icon and the Data provider Editor icon.

Thank in advance

Hello french bo-man (like me :wink: )

Some features of the reporter can be disabled in the supervisor module. Did you check it ?

Thank for your reply prd_cv1

i use BO as a final user ; i think that i don’t have the rights to access to the surpervisor module .

Is there anyway to do what i want with vba codes connected to the report ?.

as end-user, you have not access to supervisor but access to vba ? very strange :wink:

I am not expert with vba but if you use it, that is to say you must have report opened to have restrictions running. So before opening it, user will have access to commands…

We pursued this approach once upon a time, and researched it thoroughly. Yes, there are some things that can be done, but they can all be avoided by a “semi-creative” user. Our research was in context of possibly avoiding having duplicate user IDs. In the end, we reached the not so surprising conclusion that Supervisor is the best way to approach it. After all, that’s what it’s designed to do.
