Disable Shortcut Menus / Alt-F8

Good afternoon, all!

As another afternoon winds its way to a close in sunny Lytham St Annes, just
a couple of tidyups to tie up this week's system once and for all.

Is there any way in which shortcut menus can be disabled, to prevent users
from inserting and deleting rows and columns, after I've spent so much time
customizing the menu bar to prevent this?

Also, is it possible to disable Alt-F8 to stop them running macros and
breaking everything?

Thanks in advance and have a good weekend

Regards

Pete
 
You can use the OnKey method to disable any keystroke. For instance this
disables Ctrl-a:

Application.OnKey "^a", ""

See Help for more on OnKey.

You can do the same to Alt-F8 but you might just want to block your macro
names from appearing in the Macros dialog by adding Option Private Module at
the top of each module
 
Jim,

Thanks VERY much for the "Option Private Module" statement.
It's just what I needed.
Just the ShortCut menus to go now.

Have a good weekend

Pete
