Access Short-Cut Menus

[Guest]

I created a form and sub-form where the sub-form is a data-sheet listing of
records. When the database is in developer mode, .mdb, you can right-click on
the mouse while on the list and a short-cut menu appears where you can sort
the list and filter the list. I like this feature. But, when I compile it
into an MDE file it disappears. How can I make this short-cut menu appear.

I've created my own custom menu bar that appears at the top, but I want the
original short-cut menu that appears in .mdb mode.

Thanks.

You can also create your own shortcut menu and just like custom menu bars,
you can show different ones for different forms/reports.

Hello Greg,

To know the issue better, I'd like to know if you are referring to the menu
with items such as "Sort Asending"/"Sort Descending", "Filter by Selection"
etc when you right click the subforms.

I was not able to reproduce the issue on my self:

1. Converted sample Northwind database to a 2002-2003 format, and comiple
it to a MDE file.

2. Open "Order" form in MDE file, right click the subform, I could see the
Shortcut menu.

Will you check if the issue occurs with the sample Northwind database after
you compile it to a MDE type? Did you try a new database?

If you have any update, please feel free to let's know. Thanks.
