the only thing I can think of, right now, is:
On Event call for the form.
watch for the right click
check cursor position -
  inside a field/variable give popup
  else ignore

> problem / request:
> A user of one of my database solutions on PC W7 4D v13.6 is 
> complaining that, in many of the alphanumeric fields, there is NO 
> right click with subsequent cut copy paste menu. 
> they absolutely refuse to use any keyboard short-cut, all must be 
> done with the mouse (they are absolutely adamant) . 
> 
> I can create the menu and I am able to show this menu, however they 
> must click a button on the side of the alphanumeric field, clumsy 
> patch they say. 
> It should be that right clicking a text field or variable, this menu

> I can't get a text field / variable (or string variable for that 
> matter in 4D v13) to register a click in that field.  It becomes 
> active but then a second click is not registered.

> Is it possible to create such a functionality in v13 or v15 for that

> Hope to hear from anyone.
