Jim,

I just made a form with two textboxes. I created a short cut menu with the menu designer that had the three pads for cut copy and paste wusing _med_cut, _med_copy and _med_paste. I called the menu from the rightclick of each textbox.

I ran the form, typed ABC into the first textbox and highlighted with the mouse. I right clicked and selected copy, then clicked in the other textbox and right clicked and chose paste. The text was copied and pasted.

Maybe you should try the menu in a simpler form before you put it in the complex one. The only thing I can think of 9s that there is no text selected when you choose cut or copy.

BTW, The menu items seem to always be enabled, so you may need to use the skip for to disable them when _cliptext == "".
