Copy and Past function under VFP9

Copy and Past function under VFP9

• testuser1

  Unfortunately, it remains unresolved.

  Everytime after I compiled the app. and created the exe file under Ver. 9, the copy and paste function disappeared.

  Any idea VFP6 is OK.

  I guess I have fixed the issue.

  Just get into the short cut box. Delete whatever value there and press Ctrl+C to save it.

  Recompile the exe file.

  One user already confirmed that it worked.

  Thank you all.

  Thank you both.

  How do I check the system main menu

  In my main application menu, I do have a submenu called Edit and short cut keys for Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V,

  labeled as Copy, Paste.

  I modified my menu and got a prompt sth. like "Do you want to update the menu." I click "Yes" and rebult the project and rebuilt the exe file. But when I dump it to the user's side, it still does not work.

  You type some words, and highlight them. You found they were replaced by some sentences from your Email.

  You have to erase and retype the whole thing.

  They work. If not then add their menu definitions to your code. ie:

  Create a quick menu.

  From generated menu copy edit menu (leaving only those bars if you want) and add to your code. Just having the definition is sufficient. No need to activate a menu.

  Copy and Paste works in VFP. What may not at times are the shortcuts you mentioned (CTRL+C and CTRL+V) as they have to be enabled in the main menu.

  If you disable the Edit menu in your app, then these shortcuts will not be availabe to the program.
