[Ammarhm]

Hi Guys
Is there a way to build a button in access which when clicked showes likes a small menue which the user can chose from?
ex clicking on "Export" button brings up a minimenu on the button with 2 options:
Export to Word

The way to do this is to create a shortcut menu via macros and then on the Shortcut menu bar property nominate the short cut menu you have created. This will then be invoded when the user right clicks on the button.

Not tested but have done similar in the past.

Thank you for the reply
I was more into using the left mouse buttin instead of the right mouse button when clicking, the answer you gave means users must right click the button, but i mean opening the menu through clicking the left key

Instead of using a button why not use a label instead and make it look like a button.

It has an OnClick and a Shortcut Menu property so this will solve you problem as it will respond to left click events.
