Can I customise/place my own commands/event procedures on the right mouse
button? For example, I want to be able to send an email by selecting a field
by right clicking and then hit my 'send email' procedure.

Click to expand...

You create a custom right-click menu and assign that menu to the object you
want to right-click on using the Shortcut Menu Bar property. On the custom
right-click menu you add an item that calls your Email routine.

If your have Access 2007 then I have no idea if any of the above still
applies. It does if you use 2007 to run an file created in an older
version, but I don't know if/how you can create custom right-click menus in
2007.
 
Quick question bill. What is the function you put for the "on action
command". Ive just got the 2 buttons at the moment, cut and paste. However,
they are not showing up. Could this be due to the fact that i am running all
the form windows as popups to remove the access windows and task bar?
