I have some text boxes on a form in MS Access 2000. When I right click
in them I don't get any shortcut menu at all. I want the normal cut,
copy, and past menu to come up.
In the "Startup", I have the "Shortcut Menu Bar:" set to (default)
The "Shortcut Menu Bar" property of the text boxes, is empty.
So, where is my cut, copy, and past?????
Thanks....

Hi, Steven.
Open the Tools menu -> Startup... to open the Startup dialog window. Ensure
that the "Allow Default Shortcut Menus" checkbox is also checked. If it
isn't, then check the checkbox, close the dialog window, then close Access,
then reopen the database application again for the change to take effect.
Open the form in Design View and open the Properties dialog window. Select
the "Other" tab for the Form Properties. Ensure that the "Shortcut Menu"
Property is set to "Yes." Save any changes, then open the form in Form
View.
Right click on any text box on the form. If the text box contains text,
then the shortcut menu should show the normal "Cut, Copy, and Paste" items,
along with other relevant items. If the text box is empty, then the
shortcut menu should show the "Paste" item, with the other two items
disabled.
HTH.

69 Camaro,
Thank you very much.. I found that I did not have the "Shortcut Menu"
set to yes in the Forms properties. But, I still have a problem. When I
right click in the text box, I get a message stating that it "can't
find the macro (default).". After I select "OK", I do get the menu.
Thanks again...

Hi, Steven.
Open the form in Design View and open the Properties dialog window. Select
the text box that you were right-clicking when you received this error
message. Select the "Other" tab and scroll down to the "Shortcut Menu Bar"
combo box. Remove "(default)" and save the form. Open the form in Form
View. You shouldn't receive the error message any more when right-clicking
this text box for the pop-up menu.

I am writing a C# app that has a Menu. Some of the menu items will

there is no way to add a short cut that is not in the Shortcut enum.
I have my on keyboard hook so I am not worried about the custom

I've found that the "Remove Filter/Sort" selection in the Shortcut menu
(displayed on right click) produces ugly, untrappable errors, even though
"Allow Filters" is set to No in the subform.
However, the "Sort Ascending" and "Sort Descending" selections provide a
helpful feature.
Is there a way to get that "Remove Filter/Sort" out of the Shortcut menu?
I've used this in some cases, but then I lose the Sort option:

I have some code that adds entries to the "Module Compiled" popup

new entries are there for you to click. I converted it to A2000, and
reapplied the new entries. But now when you open a module and right
click (in A2K), the new entries are nowhere to be seen.
If (while in the database window) you click on View, Toolbars,

I recently discovered, that if you set the startup options for
"security", you will have alot of work do to get Access back to
"normal".
If you disable the built-in menus/toolbars you'll have to reconstruct
the one you want as a custom menu/shortcut(popup)/toolbar.
All this was a long journey in order to allow the user to sort/copy on
a datasheet view of a subform, with all the menus disabled in the
startup options.

Hi,
the application I am writing has a MainMenu and a DataGrid
(UltraGrid).
Now I have to edit the text of each cell in this grid. So far so good.
All works fine in editmode but if I press a key which is also a
shortcut it doesn´t work and the menuitem-clickevent will be
performed.

I've written an application using VB.NET 2003 and packaged it with a

I've noticed that the shortcut is strange. Unlike a normal shortcut, I

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
