Unable to right click on controls

K

I have an Access database with several forms and reports that need
updated. I am unable to right click on any control throughout the
database. I can still access the properties through the menu or by
double-clicking however. I have checked to see if the controls have any
properties set that would prevent this, but they don't. Also, there is
no security set up on this database. Any idea why I can't right click
or what I could do to fix this? Thanks.

Open your database and follow menu path Tools > Startup.
If my guess is correct, option "Allow Default Shortcut Menus" is unchecked.
Check it back and you'll get back your right click functionality (you''l
need to close and reopen the database for the setting to take effect).

HTH,
Nikos
