Hi all,

Is there any way to bring up a shortcut menu in Access on a left-click? I want to be able to just click a text box and bring up a shortcut menu., or does it require a work-around.

I know it's not the usual design practise for shortcut menus, but I need to find out, thanks.

Regards
Melt

In MS Access create a blank menu and assign this to the form your control is on. Then create a menu with the options you wish have for your control, and give this a name. On your control enter the name of your shortcut menu in the Shortcut menu bar.

it is unusual for any windows application to provide a shortcut menu on a left mouse click, most users expect this feature to be available by pressing the right mouse button.

Note: this will only allow a shortcut menu to be called using the right mouse button.
 
Thanks for the reply,

I know how to make and create right-click menus, I'm specfically interested in getting an Access shortcut menu to appear on a left-click.
