Advanced: Requires expert coding, interoperability, and multiuser skills.

This article applies to a Microsoft Access database (.mdb) and to a Microsoft Access project (.adp).



SYMPTOMS
When you open a database or project in Microsoft Access by using the /runtime switch, the Help menu includes Sample Databases as an unavailable item. This selection should not be visible at all because the sample databases are not usually included in programs that developers create for their clients.

This behavior also occurs when the Allow Full Menus property is set to False.



RESOLUTION
To work around this issue, build a custom Help menu to include with your program.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.



Steps to Reproduce the Problem
 Open any database or project by using the following command line:

&quot;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\msaccess.exe&quot; &quot;C:\ \ .mdb&quot; /runtime

NOTE: Make sure the paths for msaccess.exe and the database are correct. On the Help menu, note that the Sample Databases topic is visible but not available.
