Hi all..

I have access 2003 and I package my application with Access runtime. Users do not have access installed in their computers.

The problem the users have is, they cannot Copy/Cut/Paste from the textbox controls in the application..The same application when I run using my full version of Access 2003, I can cut/paste...

Is there a way to fix it without having to get full version of access ? or I have to live with it because I use access runtime.

Thanks
 
Can they not use the keyboard?...highlight the text...Ctrl+C for Copy, Ctrl+V for Paste, Ctrl+X for Cut..

...or make your own right-click shortcut menu

Hello,
I had this problem so i have created my own contextual menus. You must create these menu with toolbars customization option then place the name of your menu in the ShortcutMenuBar property of each form where you need it. Maybe there is more simple way... don't know.
Hope this help you.

Code:
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
Code:
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPaste
 
Thanks guys for all your responses.. I got it working now.
Did what jvincent mentioned. Didnt have to use the DoCmd

Also I noticed there is "Shortcut menu bar" under Startup settings. May be that will work too..I haven't tried it..but anyone having the same problem may try this first, instead of the changing the shortcut bar name for each form.
 
Hi Bosch, Yes you can use the startup settings if you have the same menu options on all forms.
Be carefull with cut option because user can delete records on some forms.
