Using the RibbonBar Sample there are buttons added to the File popdown menu, eg. ID_FILE_MYTEST How can I "find" these controls on the popdown menu? CommandBars.FindControl(, ID_FILE_MYTEST) just gives error. so I guess CommandBars is not the correct object to use. ------------- Chris (Manchester, UK) -- www.abc6.co.uk ---- Using CodeJock ActiveX Suite 13.1.0 with Windows8, VB6 SP6 |

Run Time Error 91 Object Variable or With Block variable not set ALSO: If I pause program and do: For i = 1 to CommandBars(1).Controls.count Debug.Print CommandBars(1).Controls(i).Caption Next This prints out all the buttons on the RibbonBar, but NOT any of the controls on the popdown Menus. How can I access the controls on the Menus?? ------------- Chris (Manchester, UK) -- www.abc6.co.uk ---- Using CodeJock ActiveX Suite 13.1.0 with Windows8, VB6 SP6 |

Hi,
In FindControl set last parameter to True.
try this code
Debug.Print CommandBars(1).Controls(0).CommandBars.Controls(0).Caption ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

This does not work. Setting FindControl last paramter = True makes no difference. CommandBars(1).Controls(0). does not have property CommandBars To see the problem, use your Ribbon MDI sample (ActiveX) Put a Break Point somewhere in FrmMain (eg. in mnuFileOpen_Click()) When program breaks (eg Click on File Open), go to Immediate Window and try: ? CommandBars(1).FindControl(, ID_FILE_MRU_FILE1, False).Caption I get Error 91, Object not set. Same error with ..... (, ID_FILE_MRU_FILE1, True).Caption But if you try: ? CommandBars(1).FindControl(, ID_VIEW_NORMAL, False).Caption This works OK. ID_FILE_MRU_FILE1 is ControlButton on PopdownMenu ID_VIEW_NORMAL is ControlButton on RibbonTab - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Please can you tell me how to FIND the ID_FILE_MRU_FILE1 control? ------------- Chris (Manchester, UK) -- www.abc6.co.uk ---- Using CodeJock ActiveX Suite 13.1.0 with Windows8, VB6 SP6 |

Oh, you mean the OTHER last parameter :-) OK, now I see how to make it work. Thankyou. (I am not good at crossword puzzles either  )------------- Chris (Manchester, UK) -- www.abc6.co.uk ---- Using CodeJock ActiveX Suite 13.1.0 with Windows8, VB6 SP6 |
