Hi Jacque, I'm not 100% sure but I don't think he has a menu script right now.
Your handler works fine of course. However, when I tried that simplistic approach in my SQLiteAdmin program, it was politely pointed out to me by a customer that the availability of cut/copy/paste/clear commands should be dependant on the cursor being in a control where they make sense. In my case, only text was involved but I ended up adding code that detected whether the current control was a field or not and enabling/disabling the controls appropriately. Oh yes, and also enabling/disabling, the paste/undo command depending on whether there was any text on the clipboard. It could get more complicated if you wanted to cut/copy out of something like a datagrid. Pete lcSQL Software <http://www.lcsql.com> On Sat, Jul 14, 2012 at 12:23 PM, J.
