Dwayne You could have something like the following in a card or stack script.
on preopencard set the traversalon of btn "Context" to false --prevents losing selection end preopencard
on mouseDown theButton
if (theButton is 3) and (word 1 of the target = "field") then
-- prepare the menu if desired, eg:
set the enabled of menuitem 2 of btn "Context" to the cAcceptPaste of the target
--
popup button "Context"
end if
end mouseDown
The button "Context" must be a popup menu button and be sure to set its menumousebutton property to 0 to prevent strange behaviour. Put it somewhere on the card and set its visible to false. You need to script the context button with something like the following.
on menupick theitem switch theitem case "Copy" copy break case "Paste" paste break case "Cut" cut break end switch end menupick

How can I show the menu items of a popup menu when right clicking in a field?
Like any text editor would have cut, copy, paste e.t.c
I could always include a menu bar at the top of the field or window but I think most people are used to right clicking in an editable field!
Thanx............
