MDI with popup Menu

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

I have the below code in SyntaxEdit Mouse Up.   When I right click on the Syntax control I do get the menu to pop up and it does work on the MDI form CommandBars_Execute the ID is correct but wheen I try with the code GetDocument.AxSyntaxEdit1.Copy() It does not.   See Code for the Execute below.   Why does it not work??

In the popup click the  MdiChildren.Length returns 0  but when I click the button on the ribbon MdiChildren.Length returns the correct 
number.
VB.net 2008

Dim Popup As XtremeCommandBars.CommandBar

Dim Control As XtremeCommandBars.CommandBarControl

If (e.button = 2) Then

BringToFront()
Popup = frmMain.CommandBars.Add("Popup", XtremeCommandBars.XTPBarPosition.xtpBarPopup)

With Popup.Controls

.Add(XtremeCommandBars.XTPControlType.xtpControlButton, ID_EDIT_CUT, "Cu&t", -1, False)

.Add(XtremeCommandBars.XTPControlType.xtpControlButton, ID_EDIT_COPY, "&Copy", -1, False)

.Add(XtremeCommandBars.XTPControlType.xtpControlButton, ID_EDIT_PASTE, "&Paste", -1, False)

End With

Popup.ShowPopup()
End If
