    Dynamically created context menus

    Hi! I'm using InfoPath 2003. I was looking at the developer's reference where it discusses GUI customization, and how to add custom context menu items by editing the appropriate view in the "manifest.xsf" file. Is it possible to add/remove menu items dynamically through code? I'm guessing the answer is no, but I wanted to confirm this.
    What I'd like to do is add a set of menu items into the "cut/copy/paste" context menu that changes according to the field the user is in.
    Thanks for any replies on this! --- Francis

    Sorry, no-can-do. The customized menu commands that appear in the context menu are global. They must be done at design time (well, actually manually outside the designer), and are not alterable in the editor. We have wanted to be able to do this multiple times.

    Of course, someone might always find a way to do it (just none I'm aware of), and if so, we'd appreciate it if you'd post here to let us know how it is done!!
