Replace Default Popup Menu (without subclassing)

VB Code:

' Create your own menu in the VB menu editor, and then call it on 
' the 'MouseDown' event of your textbox
 
Private Sub Text1_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    If Button = vbRightButton Then
        Text1.Enabled = False
        DoEvents
        Text1.Enabled = True
        PopupMenu mnuYourMenu
    End If
End Sub

But then you lose your highlight selection if you were going to do a
copy/paste function.

Also, when the cursor is in the textbox and the user presses the
menu button on the keyboard, the original edit menu pops up.

:)

And it's only for replacing... Subclassing can disable it completely even on mouseup and not mousedown, and block the keyboard button and the paste message :D Much more functionality ;)

Yes, but sub-classing "can" be a pain if not implemented correctly.
Also, harder to debug while subbing :(, but best results. :)

Yes, but this is about as simple as subclassing gets... Subclass the textbox and block the WM_CONTEXT (or WM_CONTEXTMENU, I can't quite remember) and the WM_PASTE if you want... You just take the already made subclassing modules, select the messages you want to block and voila! Nothing to it (at least not much) :afrog:
