Popup form can't delete records.

Hi,

I've had form with record selection set to false and with
this settings I was able to delete the record by going to
Edit->Delete records. When I changed the form as popup
form, I can't delete the records. If the popup form is
open on another regular form, I can select the Edit-
Delete records and it deletes the records of the form
Click to expand...
which was below this form. Why can't I get the menu's for
the popup form?

Please help,

TIA

MenuBar in Access is associated with the Access
Application window. When you Form is PopUp, it moves
outside the context of the Access Application window and
therefore the Menu doesn't work for PopUp.

Simple solution is to create a CommandButton on the PopUp
Form to delete the Current Record.
