Access Runtim Problem

[Guest]

WIth the runtime, has anyone noticed that pop-up menus do not appear when you
left-click on a datasheet column header? With the 2003 MDE version without
runtime (for users with Access 2003) it can be left-clicked to sortwhen you
click on a column header. But with the runtime, no such pop-up appears...

Anyone had experience with that?

THanks,

This is correct and one of the limitations of using the runtime.

What is actually true is that ALL built in command bars are unavailable in the
runtime. That means Menus, Toolbars, and Popup menus. The basic functionality
is still there. You just have to buiild your own menus and toolbars and assign
them to your objects rather that relying on the built in ones.
