Splitting and networking database

Thank you so much. I will try and research how to adjust the Startup Options
in the Runtime version. Somebody should write a small book on the runtime
edition. It would be a great help!

Thank you so much.

When a user is am using the front end

filter by selection.

Hi Mary,

This may have been answered in your other thread, but it sounds like
you have Shortcut Menus (the official name for Right-Click Menus)
turned off in your Startup Options. The runtime doesn't prevent them
from working.

So glad the relinker worked well for you.

You can just set the Startup Options in the MDB, then create the MDE
and distribute it. The MDE will retain those options.

We usually don't bother to change the Startup Options in the MDE. We
set them in the MDB and then bypass them during development using the
Shift key on launch.
