Larry,

Sorry about that. Was composing my thoughts and hit send.

Couple of things to try.

The DB-Edit has a couple of properties for accessing the popup
--this one enables/checks the user can access auto pop
PROPERTY yourcomponentid PMACCESS 'TRUE'
--this one enables/checks the automatic popup
PROPERTY yourcomponentid PMAUTO 'TRUE'

While these may not totally work, I have used the "Right-click EEP" in a 
DB-Edit to call menus.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Force DB Edit pop-up menu to appear (in code)


In RBase 7.6 is there a way to PROPERTY command or other method to force the 
pop-up menu of a DB Edit control to appear?


I don't want "auto pop-up" but I have some users who can't quite get the 
hang of using the keyboard shortcut.  So I want to place a button next to 
the DB Edit and open the popup menu from there.  This DB Edit is located in 
a scrolling region, so I can't use a combo box.


What I'm looking for is something similar to the PROPERTY . . . SHOW_EDITOR 
command for DB Memo fields.
