Trouble shooting-my menu bar disappeared - Full Client 6.X

Tried everything we know but cannot get the menu bar back in full client BO 6.x. My OS is Windows 2000. By menu I mean file, edit, save, etc. I know these are also available from the toolbars but my little mind is trained to use the menu bar. The toolbars are available - but not the menu bar.

Help :hb:

Thanks Anita, you pointed me in the right direction. Followed the directions below and my menu bar is back :stuck_out_tongue:

  1. Login to Business Objects Full client.
  2. When it is open, Press Alt +F11 to activate the VBA Window.
  3. Press CTRL + G for the “Immediate Window” if it is not already open.
  4. Type the following line into the “Immediate Window”:

application.cmdbars.activemenubar.visible = true
5. Click Enter.
