Right Click Question
Sean Sweeney

Is there a way to enable Right-Click in my access database forms runtime - at least without confusing macros?

My runtime hides the bars and navigations, so I'm not sure if that disabled right-click functions.

Thank you for referring this to me. It's good to know I would have the means to create my own custom right-click controls. I imagine this is something I can implement in the future.

HOWEVER - I'm trying to figure out if there is a way my front-end users can use a standard right-click function for copying and pasting. I told them keyboard shortcuts work fine (ctrl-c & x / ctrl-v). Even though I constantly try to encourage the use of ctrl-A, Z, S, X, C, V, P, etc - my end users prefer the tactile control of mouse point-and-click.

I don't suppose there's a way I can enable right-click behavior for copying/pasting to/from the clipboard. When I did further digging regarding right-click it seems most scripts require a specific mention of the from/to location being specific. Also, it seems a lot of those scripts will copy the entire content of the cell/field, rather than whatever text is highlighted / where ever the cursor happens to be.
