Commandbars_Execute not being called

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

   Hi all,

I recently added a new form with a ribbon to our application and when I added the form the ribbon worked great. However I tried to use it today and the execute event was not being called. 
The code has not been changed and I have recreated the execute method to make sure it is correct; however I have so far had no joy.
The ribbon bar sample works fine and the standard style command bars work on other forms of the application.
I am using VB6 with Xtreme SuitePro ActiveX 2009 (13.0.0).
Any insight you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Antony

	From my experience, when I get situation like this I cannot see the answer because I looking in the wrong place. I recently had a object that did not seem to behave correctly. I put lots of break points, debug.print , and MsgBox "I am here" lines in, and none of them got triggered when I ran the program. then found the program was creating a different copy of the object from what I thought. So in your case I would start with the debug.print ..... MsgBox ".... " etc and make sure you are looking in the correct place, and try and track down the problem. You may suspect a Control or VB to not be working correctly, but if that were the case it is likely this Forum would be full of other people discussing it.

	Hi, The problem turned out to be an issue with the SkinFramework.RemoveWindow method when the SkinFramework control is on a different form. In the end Oleg gave me this workaround: CommandBars.AttachToWindow 0 MainForm.SkinFramework.RemoveWindow Me.hWnd CommandBars.AttachToWindow Me.hWnd Thanks for all the help.
