    Open form with closed application window??

    Thanks Bob. You have saved me and Google many, many hours of grief. Hope I can return the favour one day, even if its just for someone else. By the way, this is a shareware membership system for (mainly) 3rd world unions that I'm building. Not sure if that matters a fig to you, but I reckon its...

    Open form with closed application window??

    Shortcut menus Thanks. Yes, this is what I'd done. What I need is some way to open this sortcut menu (ie as per your tutorial) when the application window is closed. ie the right click only works if one restores the app windom. Would there be some way of adding the shortcut window to the form...

    Open form with closed application window??

    Ahhh - worked it out. The only loose end is the shortcut menu, which won't run if the database window is minimised. Any idea what macro script I could add to a button in order to run the shotcutmenubar (ie the equivalent of a left click)?

    Open form with closed application window??

    Thanks Thanks for this Bob. I suspect you've nailed it, and so I bow in advance. But I'm not quite sure what I do to implement. Do I include this line of code in a macro called Autoexec? If so, what Action do I give? Or do I have to use VBScript somehow?

    Thanks MStef. I did as you suggested, editing the script to this: Private Sub Younionize_Rep_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "Communications", acNormal, , "ID = Forms!Unions!Younionize ID", acFormEdit, acWindowNormal End Sub and got the error message: "Syntax error (missing operator) in query...

    Runtime error 2501: OpenForm cancelled

    Hi folks I wonder if anyone can help me (a newbie) with a question. I've got a form and it has a button on it next to a field called Younionize_ID. The idea is that when you click the button it takes you to another form (called Communications), and then to the particular record where the value...
