No right click action in runtime

[Sacapuce]

Hi,
I have developed an application distributed as runtime where users can
update value list in combo boxes. This is normally done by right clicking
and choosing 'edit'. The problem is that right-click menus seem to be
disabled in runtime.
Any fix for that?
Any suggestion?
thanks
Marc

In the runtime, you need to create your own right click menus using macros.
Check help on how to do that.

many thanks,
I have followed the help menu instructions and implemented a shortcut menu
bar which I linked to a combo box on a form and the menu appeared but greyed
out. I tried to figure out why but I couldn't. I have to say that I have
had quite a few puzzling problems with macros. Like a few other people on
this discussion group, some of important macro commands are missing such as
copy and paste for run command.
Anyway, I sorted the problem out by creating an event on double-clickingand
running a VBA code DoCmd.runcommand command
many thanks for your help
Marc

To see all the macro options like copy and paste, you must click the Show
all Actions button on the ribbon.
