filter question

[Lori]

I have a form with a command buttons to display Filter by Form and Apply
Filter(the users won't have access to the filter buttons on the toolbar).
How can I have the user apply the filter since the command button for
applying the filter is disabled when the filter by form is applied?

Is there a better way to allow users to use filter by form, apply/remove a
filter without using command buttons? (without having access to the
appropriate buttons on the toolbar)

Thanks!

Lori,
Any command buttons will only be disabled if your code disables them.

If you need to provide all this functionality, you could display the Form
View toolbar or create your own toolbar with the buttons you want.

The way I do it is to provide a custom shortcut (right-click) menu with the
filter options on it.
