>>>>I have a grid in which I have a text box. On right clicking the text box I have a shortcut menu pop up with 3 options; depending upon various flags set in the selected record I wish to change the wording on the shortcut option e.g "Accept" or "Reject". Is it possible to do this with a single shortcut menu or do I have to have 2 separate menus for each alternative (in which case I would need 6 menus to cover all the possible variations!).

>>>I do this kind of thing by building the shortcut menu on the fly. That is, the RightClick method calls a method that issues the appropriate DEFINE BAR commands.

>>Thanks - will give it a go! I have led a very simple life to date - managing to avoid building my own menus and relying on the built in menu designer. Still, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
