By default, right-clicking the TextBox control launches a standard "edit"
pop-up menu.
Microsoft provides a work-around for the case where you want to launch a
different pop-up menu;

The work-aound works, but has a near-fatal (in my opinion) flaw, which
Microsoft warns you about; if you end execution of the program without
having de-activated the workaround (via code in an Unload event) the VB IDE
itself crashes.
This means;
- When executing your program (in the IDE) you can't use the "Stop/End"
button or VB will crash
and worse
- If you encounter a bug in your program, many times (at least for me)
you're going to get crashed out of VB because the "End" button would crash
you directly, and if you go into "Debug" mode, unless the problem is easy to
fix you're ultimately going to do an End (and crash)
Does anyone know of a way to 'work-around this work-around" ?
Thanks a lot,
