Disable Items in User Interface of Publisher

[JT]

Hi,

I have noticed there is no option in the Publisher group policy(GP) to
disable items in the user interface.

Does anyone know of a way of adding it to the GP or another way of doing it?

Ummm nope not what I was looking for.

I want to remove items from the user interface (like I want to grey out the
File -> Search Files).

This can be done through Group policy on all the other products through the:
Disable Items in User Interface option but this option is not within the
Publisher policy.

Still dont think we are anywhere near the solution....

I am happy with using and installing ADM templates and the use of them in
Office.

What I want to know if why there is no option in the pub11.adm template to
remove items from the Publish user interface wizzard.

Also the article you sent does have the Custom Installation Wizard (CIW) and
Custom Maint Wizzard (CMW) but they are of no use as you need to know how to
disable the items before you can do it in either (take a look at the article
that actually says "check the adm template first and then past the options in
the CIW/CMW).

Any ideas?

I'm not altogether sure you can do this with Publisher. Publisher isn't exactly
network friendly.Have you tried the security tab on the properties?
