Pop up menu on right click 1

[Spyrios]

In my database I hide the Access back window, leaving just a form up for users to enter in their data. One reason I do this is just for the style and look, the other reason is I don't want it to seem to complicated or give users a choice of the different menu options, filters, tools, etc.

The problem is this, when I hide the back window, the right mouse click no longer pops up a menu, so any cut and paste option has to use cntrl v or cntrl c. That's problematic as well... So to get to my question, is there some sort of event like mouse down that would check to see if it was the right click and then pop up a menu having just cut copy and paste options?

This should give you a good starting point for what you wish to do -

Hey thanks a lot, the only problem that I'm still having is that when the Access window is hidden, my custom menu still wont work. It will as soon as I restore the Access window though. Any suggestions as to how to get around this?


I might just end up having to make the Access window very small on the desktop instead of actually hiding it.
