Programmatically Drive RibbonBar

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

   I am using the ActiveX control version 12.0.1 with VB6.  I have added a RibbonBar or let's even take the RibbonBar example.

How can I programmatically click icons.

Also I need to programmatically drive checkboxes from various functions in my app.

Can you help?

	Hi, You can do this using Actions. Take a look at CommandBarActions overview in help file which explains how to set it up. Once you've added actions you can 'click' icons by doing something like: CommandBars.Actions(CONTROL_ID).Execute and use the Checked property on the checkboxes.
