Just set .Visible = False

e.g.:

If LoginName <> "Fred" then
mnuMyMnue.Visible=False
Else
mnuMyMnue.Visible=True
End If

Thank you much about your answer. Please show me more !

I having a VB .exe (have no project)(ex:myexe.exe). I want make another .exe file (starexe.exe). Please show me How to write commands code run starexe.exe then run myexe.exe for hide its menu ?

* In a .dll file. I see a code as :

MultiUse = -5 'True ( Error in -5 )
Persistable = 0 'NotPersistable
DataBindingBehavior = 0 'vbNone
DataSourceBehavior = 0 'vbNone
MTSTransactionMode = 2 'NotAnMTSObject
End
'VA: 11003060
Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long
'VA: 11003008
Private Declare Function GetWindowsDirectory Lib "kernel32" Alias "GetWindowsDirectoryA" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, ByVal nSize As Long) As Long
........

With this code. App always run good. But if I create it in a project.dll. It will take a error "invalid outside procedure" in above line

Why is that ?



* I also see a code look like as :

public Sub mycom(nCode, strMESS) '1100F490
1100 F490: push ebp
1100 F491: mov ebp, esp
1100F493: sub esp, 0000000Ch
1100F496: push 11001AF6h ; MSVBVM60.DLL.__vbaExceptHandler
1100 F49B: mov eax, fs: [00h]
1100 F4A1: push eax
1100 F4A2: mov fs: [00000000h] , esp
......
end sub

What language is it and may convert to normal language ?

That is Assembly language code.

Thanks !

Please do not post multiple threads for the same question (original thread here).

This thread is now closed.

your link have no show for that.

Vantrung,

You have now asked three questions in one thread...

The code as noted looks like assembly and I take it you have decompiled the original exe to get the resut you have posted and that result is not what you want.

The link I gave you shows how to control, change, and get the properties of another applications menu but if you expect me or someone else to do the work for you, well sir/ma'am you are very mistaken. You sir/ma'am are going to have to do some work yourself, put in some effort and read the help files on those API's and the associated API's.

Now as for "invalid outside procedure" means you have some code that is supposed to be contained within a sub or function (a procedure).


Good Luck

Sorry vb5prgrmr ! Because i'm very new to VB. Return to my problem . I see all of problem to be tell about addmenu to Notepad They didn't tell to another VB APP.

About Hidemenu code : I tell the truth :" I don't know". I expect you assisist me one more time !

Regard !

Have a look at RemoveMenu or DeleteMenu followed by DrawMenuBar.


Good Luck

Thank! But It's very hard to me. It seems unable control on another vb .exe, ...known system .exe only.

Why do you want to remove or change the menu item on another app?

Because I think To keep secret in buying - selling be necessery requirement. So, my target's not introduce to my customers a app in the trial period about some information in help menu, yet.

From there, I'd like hide this menu! Can you help me about this ?


Thanks!

If TrialVersion = True Then
menuToHide.Visible = False
Else
menuToHide.Visible = True
End If
