Mouse button Pop Up
Shell 12/12/2008 5:38:02 PM
In Access 2000 and Windows XP, I have a label with no caption. I use it so
that an admin can right click on the form and some command buttons become
visible. If the admin right clicks again the command buttons become
invisible.

The problem is that when you right click on the form you get a pop-up menu
which contains some enabled values (Form Design, Data Sheet View) and some
not enabled values.

How do I NOT have this pop up menu display when the right mouse button is
clicked over the invisible label?

Thanks

Set the form's "Shortcut Menu" property to "No". However, if the label isn't
visible it'll never respond to the mouse click. If by invisible label you
actually mean a label with it's visible property set to Yes, but doesn't
show because the BackStyle is set to Transparent, then you'll be ok.
