Menus

[JaedenRuiner]

I was curious,

How do you add a Menu to a form? Like is there a way to have a Main Menu bar and add the individual menus/menu items with custom events? As well can i cusomize the context menu for the form, or make a popupmenu that is executed upon clickin a command button?

There is a lot of help on how to attach menus to properties and such, but I can't find an item "Menubar" in the access interface.

Thanks

RE;Menus

You can create a menu as follows
Tools
Customize
Toolbars

Select New and give it a name (Menu appears to the right of the new button)
Drag the menu bar to the top of the screen (under the existing menu bar)


Click on commands Tab
Select New menu from the drop down list
New menu appears in the command section
Drag the new menu to the New Menu bar
Right click on it and rename it (&denotes hot key)
Eg rename it &File
From the categories box select File then drag from commands box the bits you want and drop them into the new menu named File (whilst hovering over file a blank field will appear below it drop in there

Smart,

So how can you differentiate if you want to view or Print a report, can you place customer commands or do you just put the report under a submenu to print ?

Thanks
