I just tested it with ARS 7.6.04 SP3 and it greyed out the View -> Auto Refresh 
on the user tool (also 7.6.04 SP3).  It does not remove the Right Click on the 
Results List -> Auto Refresh setting

When you tried it did you clear your User Tool cache?

You can use the Run Process  command to set preference to turn off the table 
refresh interval and that will work whether the user is using server stored 
preferences or the ar.ini stored preferences.

Subject: Disable Windows client Auto-Refresh?

** 
Hi Folks,

Does anyone know of a way to disable the "Auto-Refresh..." menu item in the 
View menu of the Windows client? I am suffering from a shortage of floating 
licenses and I want to make sure that my users are not presenting a false usage 
profile by doing auto-refresh.

I have un-checked the "Auto-Refresh" item in the "Accesible Menu Items" 
property for the view and that works for the Mid-tier but not the Windows 
client.

BMC has an unsupported hack to the ClientCore.js file to remove the "Set 
Refresh Interval" menu item from the Preferences menu in the Mid-tier and that 
works. But I still have some Windows client users and I'd like to get them too.

I have found the "Table Field Refresh Interval" field in the AR System User 
Preference form and I have a filter to check for non-null updates to that 
field. I'm just trying to cover all of the bases.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
Larry
