    Dynamically toggle "Show on the View menu when..."

    Does anyone know if it is possible to dynamically toggle the "Show on the View menu when filling out the form" under "View Properties..."? Depending on which view the user is currently in I would like a select set of views to be visible on the view menu.

    Hi Brian,

    I don't believe that you can manipulate individual items in the built-in menus, but you can
    hide the entire menu bar.
    If you want to do that, look at code I posted there:

    Hope that it helps.

    You probably want to uncheck "Show on the View menu..." for all of your views and then create your own navigation bar at the top of your form. This way you will have complete control over it and will accomplish what you are looking for. I'm imagining something sort of like a navigation system similar to how websites work. I think you could do this professionally and cleanly to obtain a lot more control on what you do or don't display.
