Is there a way to make a dynamic decision about which popup menu to
pop when right clicking the mouse? I would like to select the menu to
show based on the context of the click; if over a certain kind of word
in a rich text edit, for example, I want to show a synonym menu;
otherwise, I want to put up an enhanced cut/copy/paste type menu.

Jamie,
There are at least two methods:
1) Don't have a PopupMenu property defined, but detect the right button 
click, and then pick one of your own menus and call it's Popup method.
2) Have the PopupMenu property defined, but put in a handler for the OnPopup 
event.

Method 1 is difficult, but very powerful. You could be hooked into the 
OnMouseMove event for the RichEdit and be grabbing synonyms on the fly which 
magically appear in the status bar together with hotkeys to insert them!

Regards,
Carl.
