Wow great functionality in that context menu! However, spank me with a wet noodle for knowing better, but that registry merge hosed me up a little. Everything is fixed now with one exception...starting a new database from a right-click in Explorer. How do I get that entry back on the context menu? (Access2002 / Windows2000) TIA, Mark -----Original Message----- From: Michael R Mattys [mailto:michael.mattys at adelphia.net] Sent: Thursday, August 21, 2003 11:11 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] Decompile Try this context menu: http://168.144.193.113 http://168.144.193.113/downloads/acc2kacc97.zip Michael R.
